Club Duathlon

This internal club event is intended as an introduction to to triathlon and multisport. It is normally held twice a year - in spring and in autumn.

It follows the standard format for a duathlon (the official name for a running and biking event): that of run, then bike, then a further run. The distances have been kept to something that is readily within the capabilities of everyone in the Running Club.

Any bike will do. Hybrid, mountain bike or road bike - it doesn't matter, the course can be completed on all of them. A bike course preview is usually organised by the girls of the Triathlon Section (AKA The Cake Ladies) on a Weds evening shortly before the event if you wish to be guided round the route, or check it out yourself after checking the map below.

Distance : run 3.5km / bike 16km / run 3km

Afterwards, breakfast will be provided to allow you to refuel while you talk about your experience (your first time running after biking is unforgettable!)

Any questions, please speak to organiser Pete Binks, or drop him an email. Or speak to any of the Triathlon & Multisport section.
