Event Details

“Racin’ the Station” Duathlon is non-sanctioned USAT Run/Bike/Run event where the participants will “race” the International Space Station (ISS) as it completes one Earth orbit.  The ISS completes an orbit every 91 minutes 12 seconds.  We will track the starting location of the ISS at the race start time and see who “beats” the space station by completing the event by the 91 minute 12 second mark.
