National Cross Duathlon Championships still open for entries

The triathlon and multisport season may be drawing to a close but we’re pleased to be hosting the final Triathlon England Championships of the year. The Evil Sheriff Off Road Duathlon, which doubles as the National Cross Duathlon Championships is set for 8 November in north Nottinghamshire and is still accepting entries.

Cross duathlon involves off road running and cycling using a mountain bike. The stunning venue at Sherwood Pines is a regular for off road cycling events, and the duathlon covers a 5km run, 20km bike and final 3.6km run to finish.

Competitors aiming for national titles need to ride a mountain bike and be a member of Triathlon England (29” tyres are permitted). Athletes wishing to ride cross or hybrid bikes can still take part in the open race, which has prizes available, but won’t be eligible for national titles.

We’re expecting around 700 athletes and are staging a 10km run after the duathlon, aimed at supporters and family members. Entries are open until 9am on Monday 3 November. Subject to places still being available, further entries will be taken on the day, with an additional £5 fee. Payment on the day is cash only.
