JD Duathlon Series 2

Orton Bradley Park provides the JD Duathlon Series 2 with a simple club-race format: run, road bike, run, with enough variation to keep it challenging. This is the second event in the Tuffnell Drainage JD Duathlon Series. The course setup suggests it was designed by racers, as John and Dave are athletes themselves. The shorter run lap follows the "main shingle road within the park"; the longer one begins on shingle then moves onto "trails with a few steps, roots and likely a little mud". The bike leg is an "out and back on road course", offering no escape from the wind or your pacing. The start line features a wide range of participants, from first-timers to Youth, Novice/Junior, Open, and Teams categories. The Kids 5-9 event is a straightforward "run/bike/run within the park".
