Jekyll and Hyde Park Hallowe'en Duathlon
Central London's duathlon
The 2008 race will take place on Sunday 26 October and is part of the Triathlon London League — a series of races in which Triathlon England London Region affiliated clubs compete against each other throughout the year.
The race is now SOLD OUT and the waiting list is closed.
The course
The entire race is held within Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, the first run on a beautiful course taking in the footpath around the Serpentine (4.2km). The bike is 8 laps of South Carriage Drive (20.8km) - don't be fooled, it's not flat but it should be fast and the road surface is good. Not done yet though, you finish with two laps of the Serpentine (7.6km). Start, finish, transition and registration will be at the southeast corner of the park where South Carriage Drive approaches Hyde Park Corner. Detailed race information is here.
Information for competitors:
- The entry fee is £20 for BTF members and £22 for non-members.
- There is a limit of 175 participants.
- Entry to this race for Serpentine Running Club members is severely restricted. You must apply to the race director before registering via EntryCentral. Only those with a proven track record of volunteering are eligible.
- There is no strict time limit for completing the course, however we would expect all competitors to have completed the first run and the bike by 9:30 am. Note that the Queen's Life Guard will access the bike course at 9:20 am and any cyclists remaining on the course at that time will have to give way. Transition will be cleared by 11 am. This should be achievable by all abilities but please understand that if punctures or mishaps slow you down, we may need to end your race prematurely. Time limits are imposed by the park officials to avoid inconvenience to other park users.
