The 2025 edition of the GRAVELMAN Triathlon and Duathlon for Cancer will take place on Sunday, July 20th in beautiful Killarney Lake Park located in Fredericton, NB. This “no-frills” race occurs entirely within the municipal park’s safe boundaries, which feature a warm, sheltered lake with sandy beaches, a 10 km forested cycling loop suitable for "gravel" bikes, mountain bikes and fat bikes, and a 2 km lakeside trail run loop. The 3 disciplines of triathlon, duathlon and aqua-bike will be offered, with distances ranging from a fun and easy Kids/Family event to the very challenging “Half-Iron”.​
