Permitted by British Triathlon as complying with Covid-19 regulations.
Join Holmfirth Junior Duathlon Organisers on Sunday 23rd August from 1pm.
For regular attenders of Tough Nut Events, they have had to make a number of changes to the organisation to comply with current guidelines surrounding social distancing and infection reduction. Here is a summary of the main changes:
- The only useable indoor facilities will be the toilets.
- There will be a health questionnaire for each athlete to complete, confirming their fitness to compete and identifying other supporters attending with them.
- Instead of group starts, each athlete will start individually, activating their chip timing as they cross the start line. Athletes will be asked to self- seed by age group with the faster starting first to reduce unnecessary overtaking. This will also prevent congregating in a start area and also take any pressure off having to be at the start line at a prescribed time.
- There will be no prizes or medals.
