Sustainability and Race Mementos
TriWorks are conscious of the environmental impact of their event and want to be part of the solution and not the problem. For that reason they are only providing Race T-Shirts and Finisher’s Medals to those who would like them.
Triathlon Scotland Membership
In order to ensure you have adequate third party insurance for the race you will need a valid race licence. If you have Core or Ultimate membership of Triathlon Scotland (or Welsh Triathlon or Triathlon England) then this provides you with a race licence. You will be required to provide a physical or digital copy of your race licence at registration along with photographic ID.
If you don't have a race licence we will pay a levy on your behalf which provides appropriate third party insurance on the day of the race.
Race Belts
You will be provided with a race number at registration. This needs to be displayed to the front during the run sections and to the back during the cycle section. The easiest way to do this is with an elasticated race belt around your waist. You can either choose to provide your own race belt or purchase a Zone3 race belt alongside your entry.
Kit List
Draft Legal
For draft-legal racing you will need a roadworthy bicycle with traditional drop style handlebars and brake levers. Importantly, you are not allowed to use time trial bikes or any form of clip-on aero bars. Wheels must have a minimum of 12 spokes, and therefore disc wheels are not allowed. A well-fitted helmet must be worn and fasten at all times during the bike leg.
FAQs
What are the rules of draft-legal racing?
The majority of normal duathlon rules remain the same. The main differences relate to the type of bike you are allowed to ride, with aero bars and disc wheels not allowed. Importantly, you are also not allowed to draft off athletes of another gender or athletes on a different lap. We would recommend that you familiarise yourself with the British Triathlon Competition Rules.
Will there be medals at the East Fortune Duathlon?
In an effort to reduce the environmental impact of racing, there will only be wooden Finisher’s Medals for those who request one when checking out. They are available at no extra cost. If you decide not to take a medal we will donate the cost to our charity partner.
