House of Dun Duathlon - Montrose Triathlon Club
The House of Dun Duathlon is organised by Montrose Triathlon Club and is based at the House of Dun, a National Trust for Scotland building in Montrose. The event includes two off-road run sections within the estate and a bike section on mainly quiet country roads.
The distances are:
- Run: 5.6 km
- Bike: 25.8 km
- Run: 3.8 km
Run routes are off-road and trail trainers are advised; road trainers that can get muddy are acceptable. Routes will be signed and marshals will be positioned as appropriate, but marshals cannot stop traffic and participants must follow the highway code. There is a mandatory stop and unclip from pedal point at the Dun/Montrose road junction; failure to unclip will result in disqualification.
Entry is limited to 120 participants with places allocated first come first served and a waiting list in operation. Teams may enter; one team lead should register and record team member names. The race number is also the timing chip and acts as the baton between team members. Race passes will be checked on the day and under 18s require parental consent to race on open road; minimum age is 15 years.
The entry fee is £35 per person or £40 per team. The bike route has been measured using Mapometer. Both races are held under Triathlon Scotland rules and timing is provided by Thistle Timing. Car parking is available for a fee of £3 (card payments accepted). Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
