East Essex Kids Duathlon
13 Sep 2025
Organiser's Description
Welcome to the sign-up page for the 2025 East Essex Kids Duathlon, hosted by East Essex Triathlon Club.
Although we were hoping to host a Triathlon, due to circumstances beyond our control, the pool for this event is no longer available. Instead, we will be hosting a duathlon. This event will still count towards the East Junior Race Series.
A duathlon consists of a run, followed by a cycle, and then a final run. Part of the first run will be on the running track, otherwise most of the course is on flat grass. Distances according to age are as indicated in the table below.
The race is open to beginners as well as experienced competitors.

Competitors are politely reminded that it is a direct infringement of British Triathlon competition rules to use any device to mark their position in transition. This includes excessive application of Talcum Powder in and around the competitors transition area. This and any other device or marker will be removed by the duty official where possible.
If this is not possible a statutory 2 minute penalty will be applied.
A short trophy presentation will take place once all the competitors have finished the race and we have been able to compile the provisional results. Trophies will be forwarded on if you are unable to stay for the prize giving. Whilst we will award the trophies after the race, there may be challenges to those results which we will investigate before finalising the results, on this website, within 7 days.
Provisinal Results will be available online later the same day.
Only people who are female sex at birth are eligible to compete in the Female category. All other individuals including transgender people are eligible to compete in the Open category. Responses to this question will enable event organisers to allocate competitors into the correct race category as required under the British Triathlon Transgender Policy effective 1 January 2023. This policy can be read here and provides more information regarding race categories and eligibility.
Further information and any important updates will be shown at the Event Website
