GRAVELMAN 2025
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”.
