Dirt Duathlon – Horowhenua
Sunday, June 21, 2026 · Manawatū-Whanganui, New Zealand
Start location
Manawatū-Whanganui
About this race
Bush trails and rural tracks set the tone here, with the Dirt Duathlon – Horowhenua designed more like an "entry-level adventure race" than a standard run-bike-run. It combines trail running, mountain biking, navigation, and "surprise challenges," making it the sort of day where steady teamwork matters as much as speed.
The course uses a cloverleaf design, sending teams out on stages and bringing them back to a central hub between efforts. Expect non-technical riding, "beginner-friendly navigation," and a few "unexpected tasks along the way," which should suit new racers without boring experienced ones. Teams of two, three, or four line up, mixed or single-gender, making it a "great winter adventure" for runners who like their off-road racing with a bit of strategy and mud on the shoes.
