Sri Chinmoy Tri Club's SBR-Mini DUATHLON (run-bike-run)
TOCKINGTON DUATHLONS ARE BACK FOR 2026! And down in price to 10 pounds per race with discount code SC26.
As part of British Triathlon's new Swim-Bike-Run-MINI event series, our beginner-friendly duathlons are back for 2026 with a choice of distances and the usual welcoming, easy-going atmosphere. The venue as per usual is Tockington Manor School.
All 3 races offer a choice of distances - while most will opt for the 3k Run - 10k Bike - 1k Run option, there is an opportunity for those without much training behind them to still get a taste of Duathlon with the new 1k Run - 5k Bike - 1k Run option, which takes place at the same time on the same course so everyone is in it together.
The run course is on grass and uses laps of the field; the longer option covers two laps, the shorter option two shorter laps. The bike course is one or two laps of a 5 km loop on predominantly flat lanes around Tockington and Awkley, with a few short slopes to bridges. Riders must obey the highway code, ride separately rather than in a group, and follow marshals at signed junctions. E-bikes are permitted only if the battery is removed for the race.
Transition areas are informal; athletes wheel bikes about 100 m to the mount point and return to the same transition after the bike leg. A sweep vehicle containing a first aider and a bike mechanic follows the riders for assistance. Facilities include toilets at the Pavilion and first aid on course. Parking is available in the school car park about 150 m from the Pavilion.
Race Distances:
- Full Course: 3 km run, 10 km bike, 1 km run
- Short Course: 1 km run, 5 km bike, 1 km run
This event is aimed at people training for a triathlon who want multisport practice, or anyone who wants the challenge of combining two sports in a fun race! There will be a limit of 80 people taking part to keep the course uncrowded and to stay in line with the aims of the SBR-Mini initiative which is focussed on small, short races for those new to Multisport.
