Entry Information


The winter duathlon series has gained in popularity over the last 5 years and attracts a mixed field ranging from novices to elite athletes. The events are informal and the format includes a break between each of the disciplines. Following the initial 3 miles run, competitors complete a 10 mile cycle time trial starting at 20 second intervals. Upon completion of the cycle time trial all of the competitors line up to 'mass start' the final 3 miles run. The time gaps between disciplines allow competitors to change clothing and combat the cold weather during the cycle section! As the popularity of the winter duathlon series has increased in recent years, the popularity of 'cake man' has also increased markedly. This now legendary individual who arrives before the finish of each event armed only with red Nissan Micra, a boot full of home made cakes and a large tea pot forms an integral part of the series.
