Clarenbridge Duathlon Race Report 7th March 2010
By Miriam Wall

Sunday morning: beautiful crisp dry cool day with a little wind.
Perfect duathlon weather! 4km run 13km cycle and a 4km run.
(Cycle course was reduced from 20km).
And we are off.....to a false start. The blind leading the blind to a dead end.
The race is re-started and the marshalls are now in place. Off we go again.
The run course is off road through the beautiful woodland. A lovely run down to the bikes.
Onto the bikes and a left hand cycle loop takes us around the village, 13K, is it worth changing shoes for a short cycle?.
Run back up the hill through the forest to the finish line.
Into the hall for a post race feast. Delicious food!
GTC has a great turn out at this local event.
