Canterbury Duathlon Series 2024

The distances are all achievable with the run/walk in the enclosed area of Brookside Park, while the bike ride is out and back . No hills and very little traffic makes this such an appealing event. We reiterate that the long course is not to be walked because of time restraints of all competitors, any competitor wanting to walk the event, they should enter the short course.

The distances are run/walk on a mix of surfaces, grass and seal. The first run/walk is a 2 or 4 laps of the 1.25km circuit, the bike ride is 12kmout and back course, with 1 lap for the short course and 2 for the long course. The last run/walk is an easy 1 or 2 lap of the 1.25km depending if you are doing the short or long course.

This is a great spectator course for husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend or any other friend to come along and watch.
