On the same day as the Women's Rio Triathlon we are holding a day of beginners duathlons at an iconic London 2012 venue.

To celebrate the Rio Games triathlon, we (Triathlon England,) have teamed up with East London Triathletes and Lee Valley VeloPark to put on a day of duathlon events for those new to, or curious about the sport. 

The duathlon events have realistic and achievable distances of 600m run, 3km cycle and then finish with a 600m run. Lee Valley VeloPark will provide hire bikes so all you need is a pair of suitable shoes and £5 to take part. 

Every 45 minutes from 10:00am there will be a event to take part in. For the childrens events participants need to be 9 years and under 14 years old (on 31st December 2016). The adult events are for those over 14years. 

There are showers and a cafe inside the velodrome for after you've had a go!
