Race Day Procedure 1. Parking Orton Bradley location https://goo.gl/maps/Y5PCckL2sYveyST87 Enter the main gates. You are not required to pay the park fee – this is included in your entry fee. Drive past transition then park on the grass on the left in the large “picnic area 3” (not the right) DO NOT PARK ON THE COURSE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THIS FORMS PART OF THE COURSE 2. Racking your bike The bike racks will not be numbered – you can put your bike anywhere. The kids transition will be alongside the main transition area. 3. Toilets Public toilets can be located at the entrance to the main walking tracks as well as near transition. Refer to the map below or look here for a google earth view of the park CLICK HERE Race Timing This event is timed manually. No split times will be recorded – i.e. you will only get your total time. 1. Race number – your race number will need to be securely pinned to your front or a race belt. If you do not have your race number visible at the finish we cannot record your time. a. Teams – the runner has the race number. There is no need for the bike to have a number. 2. Team Tag – this is simply a tag of hands at the bike racks. The runner runs into transition and tags the cyclist who is standing by their bike. Upon finishing the bike leg the cyclist runs to rack their bike and the runner waits by the bike rack. 3. If you have to withdraw from the race at any point please let the timing team at the finish line know of your withdrawal. Race Courses and Details Distances below are approximate. Open & Teams – Run 1km (1 lap)/ Bike ~4km (1 lap) / Run 2km (2 laps) / Bike (1 lap) / Run 2km (2 laps) Novice / Youth / Junior – Run 1km (1 lap) / Bike ~4km (1 lap) / Run 2km (2 laps) Kids 5-9 years – a run/bike/run on the kids BMX bike loop. The runs will be approximately 400m with the MTB being ~1km BIKE LAP Drafting is allowed in the mountain bike leg . The bike lap will be ~4km for a lap (the official loop is about 3km but we will have ~500m approach on the access road). The lap will take around 15mins +/- 2-5mins depending on biking ability. There is no overly technical aspects to the loop. The course has a mix of flat, some small climbs/descents along with a few bridge crossings. The final section of the course will deviate off the track to finish on an access road to avoid head on collisions. IMPORTANT 1. When biking on the shingle access road at the start and end of the ride you will ride on the right hand side of the road 2. You must be considerate of walkers 3. Cars may drive up the access road – the park is open to other users Exit transition, ride 400-500m on the shingle road to the start of the MTB track. RIDE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD. The gates that are normally closed will be open, turn right to join the well marked MTB track. Please note the track is shared in places, walking and MTB. We do not have closure of the park so please be considerate of any walkers. Simply follow the BLUE MTB signs around the course. At some points the track is shared but much of it is MTB only. Keep an eye on the signs. We will have additional red “TRIATHLON” arrows marking the course There is one section you can take the “dipper” or “easy” route. The dipper is quicker :-) the choice is yours. There are some passing points as you can see here plus some narrower sections Towards the end of the loop you will come to a T intersection on an access road. The MTB track directs you left but we have permission to use the private access road so you will turn right at this point to exit the MTB lap (this will avoid any head on collisions). Exit the MTB loop and return to transition on the access road riding on the right side of the road. Other considerations: Please be very careful on the cattle stops, especially if wet, make sure you ride over them in a straight line. If you are a strong biker and not so good on the run we suggest you push hard at the start of the ride to get past as many athletes as possible on the access road as there is limited passing opportunities during the lap. If you need to pass someone please be polite and request to “pass on your right” when there is space. Sometimes in MTB racing you just need to be patient. We’ve made this a run/bike/run/bike/run format so we expect slower athletes to be off the MTB loop by the time the fastest athletes get back on for their 2nd bike leg. RUN LAP The run laps is essentially a lap of the kids BMX trail around “base camp”. From the transition area run away from the harbour end, cross the shingle road where indicated and perform a clockwise lap of the kids BMX loop. As you return to transition you will stay on the grass verge on the left of the access road, entering transition from the harbour end. TRANSITION Please note there is a cross over point at the start of the bike. You are required to run you bike over the road (watching for oncoming cyclists before mounting your bike). KIDS DUATHLON (5-9 years) Run/Bike/Run. This will be the most challenging of the event of the series for the kids. After a short opening run the children will ride the ~1km loop (see image above) which does include some changes in grade (ie they will need to be able to use their brakes). The final; run off the bike will be the same as the opening run but instead of heading to their transition kids will run to the finish line. The bike course can be seen in the map above which ride around “base camp”. We are happy for parents to bike alongside their kids allowing enough space for others to pass. The kids transition area will be alongside the main transition area. For more information on Orton Bradley Park visit http://www.ortonbradley.nz/biking-tracks Aid Station There will be no aid stations on the course unless it is hot. We advise you carry a drink on the bike. At the finish line water will be available. Medical There will be a first aid representative on hand for any medical issues – the location will be alongside the registration tent.

  • 2014 XTERRA Wetsuits "Test Drive" Event
    Maritime de Luna Join TGC New sletter Archive Mere Mortals Group Training Calendar Contact Duathlon January 29, 2014 Dear Evan, It appears that a chilly Winter has gripped most of Pensacola for the start of 2014! Despite the harsh conditions, it has been nice to see that our members are finding ways to get in a workout. There have been a few days of reprieve and it is good to see our athletes enjoying these days. Your TGC leadership is hard at work preparing for the 2014 season. Chris Hicks and Gary Garza are moving swiftly on finalizing our club kit order. Our new look and design was popular, as we have seen a record amount of orders. We look forward to having these distributed in mid-March. Our Youth Race Director, Jim Hagy is busy orchestrating with the City, sponsors, traffic engineers, and community to make the Maritime de Luna Duathlon a premiere youth multisport event in NW Florida. Our Vice President, Alex Bell has been pounding away at our new TGC Bylaws and the necessary process to convert TGC to a 501c3 Tax Exempt status. Tom Henderson, Mere Mortals Chairman is already getting the permits for use of Casino Beach for each Mere Mortals session. Past Prez, Evan Malone, and TGC member Chris Rawson are coordinating the Xterra Wetsuit fitting for our athlete's in March. And yes, your current President, Mindi Straw, has already booked our 2014 End of Season Party! Plenty happening with the leadership, but of course it is the support of our TGC members that keep us motivated and moving forward.

  • Ware Joggers Duathlon Race Rules – …And Advice
    Ware Joggers Duathlon Race Rules – …and advice. The rules below may, for the novice, seem daunting. Please stick with it, read the whole document and it will all make sense. PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME YOU KNOW THE RULES! Competitors will compete in this Duathlon event comprising of a RUN (on grass), BIKE (on road) and RUN (on grass). You take part in the event entirely at your own risk. We cannot allow any accompanying dogs, unless for reasons of registered disability. Please ask well in advance. Thank you. Age Limits: Competitors must be 18 or over to enter and take part and must also be fully paid-up members of one of the clubs invited. Event organisers are able to amend the course route at any time and without prior notification. Event cancellation will only take place if your safety is at risk. Due to up-front costs we will be unable to make refunds and any residual will be donated to our chosen club charities. What is a Duathlon? A Duathlon is a competition that is composed of running and biking. The usual format for a Duathlon is run-bike-run, meaning you start with a run, then transition to the bike, then transition back to running again. Your time starts when you start the race, and finishes when you cross the finish line. This means that the time it takes you to switch from running to cycling and back again is part of your race time. Is everybody really good? Some people are, some aren't. Just like your local 5K, there is a group of hardcore athletes going for the win, there is a bunch of middle of the pack types, and there are some foundation racers.

  • The Benefits to Permit Holder
    Obtaining a Permit to hold and Athletic Event or Meeting in Scotland 1 Scope of Permit Event organisers must be current affiliated members of scottishathletics. Existing organisers must have fully complied with the permitting process for previous events and be in good standing with scottishathletics and other National Governing Bodies. Only events, or components of events, operated under United Kingdom Athletics (UKA) rules are eligible for a permit. Therefore events including multi-sport (pentathlon, quadrathlon, triathlon, duathlon, aquathlon), orienteering, adventure racing, or events with obstacles (excluding hurdles), dogs, foam, dye, or lights as the core feature of the event fall outwith our remit and we cannot permit or insure them. It is essential that all event organisers carry out a risk assessment of all their events. To assist with this there are downloadable documents and guidelines to assist you on the scottishathletics website. There may be other hazards that could present a ‘risk’ to your event that you should identify clearly in your Risk Assessment. It is essential that you keep a copy of your completed Risk Assessment and permit form. scottishathletics does not require a copy of the completed Risk Assessment but reserves the right to request copies of Risk Assessments during the planning of the Event and conduct spot checks on Events. As far as possible permits will be issued in order to avoid clashes with other similar events. Attempts will be made to avoid conflict with similar events and scottishathletics championship dates. In such circumstances it may not be possible to grant a permit for the requested date.
