The Cross Duathlon de Montluçon is a run-bike-run event held in early March in Montluçon, located in the Allier department of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France. The event features a Division 3 men's and women's selective race, an Open XS race, and youth races for participants aged 10 to 13. The XS race offers a short, accessible duathlon format, while the D3 races are structured around club teams.
The race takes place on closed city roads, with drafting permitted in all categories. The Open XS and youth events welcome all athletes, allowing beginners, juniors, club racers, and more experienced duathletes to compete together. For the D3 races, clubs form teams of 3 to 5 athletes, with potential additional U23 spots awarded based on the club's triathlon-school rating.
