Sri Chinmoy SBR-Mini Duathlon - Tockington
The event is a Swim-Bike-Run-MINI duathlon held at Tockington Manor School. It runs on a grass sports field for the running legs and on nearby lanes for the bike leg. Entry is limited to 80 participants to keep the course uncrowded.
There are two distance options:
- 3 km run, 10 km bike, 1 km run
- 1 km run, 5 km bike, 1 km run
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. The standard entry fee is £20; a discount code SC26 reduces the fee to £10.
