Duathlon Championship
The Club Duathlon Championship is normally run on a Sunday in mid March of each year as a 'warm-up' to the start of the triathlon race season.
Distances & Course
The distances consist of a 4 km (2.5 mile) run, 28 km (17.5 mile) cycle and 6.84 km (4.25 mile) run.
The first run is in Farnham Park and takes in one small loop of 'The Avenue' before returning to the Sports Centre. (Click here for a map of the Duathlon run route).
The transition takes place at Farnham Sports Centre (Click here for a location map of Farnham Sports Centre).
The cycle route is and 'out-and-back' loop through Farnham town centre, and along the A31, with the turn at the A32 roundabout south-west of Alton. (Click here for a map of the Duathlon cycle route).
The second run is in Farnham Park and takes in one large loop of the park before returning to the Sports Centre. (Click here for a map of the Duathlon run route).
