Central Lancashire Junior and Super Sprint Duathlon
The Central Lancashire Junior and Super Sprint Duathlon is organised by MCA Fitness and takes place at the UCLAN Sports Arena, Tom Benson Way, Preston PR2 1SG. All racing is held within the university grounds on the Crit cycling track and the new athletics track, so there is no road cycling or running and the course is traffic free. Races are chip timed and every finisher receives a McA series medal. Finish line photos are offered.
The event includes a full range of junior age categories plus Sprint and Super Sprint races. Riders must wear a helmet and use a safe bike. Transition space is provided for each competitor to store bike, running shoes and nutrition; no additional storage is available.
Race rules and on-course procedure are specified: running is on the left in an anticlockwise direction, cycling is on the left in a clockwise direction, mount and dismount lines are marked, overtaking procedures are explained, and drafting is not allowed with penalties for persistent offenders. Time trial/TT bikes are not recommended. Spectators are permitted around the track perimeter; one parent may assist a child with transition setup then will be asked to leave before the child’s wave. Water and sweets are provided on course or at stations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
