London Duathlon - New Ultra Distance
14/06/2010
The London Duathlon is the world's biggest run, bike, run event and has expanded in 2010 to offer a long distance challenge, of 20km run : 80km bike and 10km run which offers athletes moving up to longer distance racing the chance to test themselves in the safety of a closed-road environment.
Launched for 2010, the London Duathlon now offers a challenge that will appeal to the thousands of athletes now focussing on longer distance racing. The 20km : 80km : 10km event is one of the few opportunities to race at these distances in the UK and will be integrated into the existing Challenge and Fun distance events for the London Duathlon.
The Ultra will start the days racing beginning with 2 laps of the Park for the first run, followed by 7 laps on the bike and a further full lap of the Park to finish. Places in the event will be available on a first come, first served basis and limited by the route capacity. Open to any participants over 17 years old, there will be a time limit of 6hrs 15 mins to complete the distance. Below is an estimate of the average times to complete the course.
The roads within the park will be closed for the day and will provide a stunning course for The London Duathlon, with secluded grassland and woods. There are incredible views of Central London, including St Paul's Cathedral, the London Eye and Canary Wharf.
Enter today for what always proves to be one of the highlights of the multi sport event calendar.
