Virginia Duathlon

Surry, Virginia (03/29/2009)

Brief Description

We’re excited about Chippokes Plantation State Park. Chippokes Plantation is a scenic locale located between Petersburg and Smithfield on the southern banks of the James River; just a short ferry ride from Williamsburg. The plantation has been in continual operation since 1617. On the grounds are antebellum mansion, formal gardens, and a collection of antique farm and forestry equipment and a sawmill exhibit at the Farm and Forestry Museum. A campground and three unique overnight cottages allow visitors to spend the night on the historic grounds. The 5K runs run along the plantation roads inside the park and the bike course covers 23 miles of scenic and quiet country roads in Surry. We believe you will be pleased with the new venue!

Packet pickup is not mandatory on Saturday, but highly advised in order to avoid lines on race day morning. We will make arrangements for you to receive a parking pass for packet pickup and race day morning at the park main gate so that you do not have to pay twice to enter the park. Tell them you are there for the duathlon.
