Wheal Jane Duathlon
The Wheal Jane Duathlon is a multisport event held at the Wheal Jane grounds, utilizing a traffic-free racing circuit in collaboration with the Wheal Velocity Cycling Club. The competition takes place on closed roads and purpose-built tracks, providing a secure environment for all participants.
The event follows a run-bike-run format with a specific heat and final structure. Participants first complete the full course in initial heats. Based on their finishing times, athletes are then seeded into two separate groups. The fastest 50% of participants across all age groups and genders qualify for the A final, while the remaining 50% compete in the B final. This format requires athletes to complete the designated distances twice during the event.
Available distances and categories include:
- Adult and Junior (8-16) Course: 2.5 km run, 10 km bike, and 1.25 km run.
- Scootathlon (Ages 5-8): 400 m scoot, 400 m bike, and 400 m run.
The cycling portion occurs on a dedicated racing circuit, while the running segments take place on purpose-built tracks within the wider grounds. Participants aged 13 and up have the option to compete in either the adult event or the junior event. The event is open to all ability levels and ensures participants compete against others of similar performance speeds in the final round.
