A small but very well-organised family-friendly event! Everything about this race was fun, and it wasn't lacking in competition either. You have a whole range of people there, from athletes to complete beginners, and everyone is incredibly supportive. If you're looking for your first duathlon, this is the one for you! They also have a bike maintenance team on hand which was vital when my Dad's tyre burst before the cycle (he still managed to beat me though)! Overall, a brilliant event and I would recommend it to anyone!

Organiser's description

The Donut Duathlon takes advantage of the Torbay Velopark to offer a fast, flat and completely traffic free duathlon course. Ideal for all ages & for beginners and seasoned athletes alike,  It starts with a flat parkland run, followed by a fast ride on the smooth tarmac of the Velopark followed by a shorter run to finish.

The Donut Duathlon attracts some of the top local duathletes but is also very family friendly.  We also offer shorter distances for children aged 3 and above. Parents are welcome to run alongside children under 8 in our mini duathlon. They can also help their kids with their bikes/scooters in transition.

And there's also a Supersprint/Novice event for those new to the sport or who prefer a shorter race.

Medals and donuts for all finishers whichever race they're doing!  For this event any roadworthy bike will do: MTBs, hybrids or road bikes are all fine. This race is non-drafting & TT/triathlon bikes are permitted.
