What better way to work off those Christmas excesses than a closed-road run-bike-run event??!!

JOIN US FOR THE COLCHESTER CHRISTMAS DUATHLON ON MONDAY 27TH DECEMBER 2021.

Based at the brand new Northern Gateway bike circuit, this 2 mile run – 10 mile bike – 1 mile run duathlon is perfect for those both new to the sport and those who want a fast race without the worry of being in conflict with other road users. This new circuit is flat, fast and comprises of a 1 mile smooth tarmac loop that is perfect to ride on!
