_ The 2020 Chattahoochee Challenge Half Triathlon/Duathlon:- CANCELLED

From The Race Website: 

"
2020 has not shaped up for the season we anticipated. Nation wide race directors have had to make tough calls that no doubt have devastated athletes both new and seasoned. It is with a heavy heart that we will be cancelling the Triathlon/Duathlon portion of our 2020 season."

Columbus, GA has quickly become a Triathlon Mecca. It is home to a Half Distance held in April, a Sprint Triathlon and Duathlon held in July, an Olympic Triathlon and Duathlon held in August. The 4-6ft down river swims, flat to rolling hills (Half course only) on the bike, and the flat and scenic run course appeal to both the beginner and advanced triathlete. We look forwrd seeing you and welcoming you to our community.
