Preparations in full swing for 2nd Annual Laois Duathlon. Portarlington based club Stump Jumpers ARC are busy preparing for their 2nd annual Duathlon. Having organised the event last year, they have stuck with the same route and distance categories this year. The event will be chip timed. There will be prizes for first, second and third in both the short and long course and for first place in the relay team. Additionally there’s a selection of Spot Prizes for participants also but most important of all the Stump Jumpers ARC post race hospitality. A good atmosphere is promised. Runners and cyclists of all abilities are welcome. Check out our Facebook page @ Stump Jumpers ARC. The countdown has begun for Stump Jumpers ARC Duathlon. Organizers once again are hoping for impressive numbers of entries. Participants have already begun signing up for the race, which will take place this year on Sunday, July 28th 2013.
The route will be the same as last year – starting and finishing at the True Fitness Studio at Portarlington Business Complex, Canal Road Portarlington. On site free parking available in and a safe vicinity for spectators.
We greatly look forward to welcoming many runners, cyclists and spectators alike to our fast growing club on Duathlon day! Last year was our inaugural event for we are confident of attracting even greater numbers .
All participants will this year once again receive a print off once the race is over with details of their individual time.
As ever, we look forward to welcoming runners and cyclists of all abilities, with competitive athletes and club members lining up alongside novice participants. The minimum age is 15 years.
Entry fees are €20 per person for the short course and relay team event and €25 per person for the long. Online entry is available at www.runireland.com.
