Descrpiption:

The Whisky Dick Triathlon has been going on for many years. It’s tough, but not impossible! Start with the swim in Vantage in the mighty Columbia River. Get your bike and start the ride into Ellensburg. Make sure you are in the right gear as during the first 12 miles you ascend 1900 feet as you see some beautiful terrain. Finish the ride at the Kittitas Fairgrounds and start the run heading out onto the John Wayne Trail, then going through some of the town and finish the run at the Fairgrounds. This event includes a 10K Fun Run that will start at 9:30 am at the Kittitas Fairgrounds.

BuDu Racing, LLC Charity of Choice: JDRF!

JDRF BuDu Racing, LLC is proud to pledge a portion of the registration fees to support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). The mission of JDRF is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that strikes children and adults suddenly, and can be fatal. Until a cure is found, people with type 1 diabetes have to test their blood sugar and give themselves insulin, every day of their lives. And even with that intensive care, insulin is not a cure for diabetes, nor does it prevent its eventual and devastating complications, which may include kidney failure, blindness, heart disease, stroke, and amputation.
