Event Details


Taking place entirely within the traffic free track at Darley Moor race track, this duathlon offers an ideal venue to try a dual-disciplined sport. 

The event is chip timed and is often included in the East Midlands/West Midlands Junior Race Series.

Accommodation

We have been working with Sportora who have got some deals on hotel rooms and lodges near to Darley Moor.  If you are interested you can contact them on 01384 929181 or via Travel@sportoraltd.com

There is free basic camping at Darley Moor for the night before your race – there are toilet blocks that will be open but no showers or electrical hook ups.  You do not need to book this in advance as there’s plenty of room, we’ll send out a form with the race information that will include a question asking whether you are camping.

Refund Policy

Refunds

Organising a race incurs considerable costs which are met a long time before race day and so individual refunds will only ever be issued at the Race Organiser’s discretion. For a refund to be considered, full details must be emailed to us for consideration within a reasonable time frame of the event. 

We do not refund any admin fees that were applied on top of the base Entry fee paid.

Cancellations    

We hold the rights to amend/cancel any aspect of an event at late notice. Cancellation will only ever be a last resort for us, and we will always take direction on event cancellations from government agencies (e.g. the Met Office for weather related incidents) and the National Governing Body concerned, in addition to our assessment of the local conditions.
In the event of any cancellation, if it possible to reschedule the event to a different date in the same calendar year then all entries will be automatically transferred to the new date. Deferrals and transfers will be permitted for the rescheduled event.

Where an event cannot be rescheduled, committed contractors will be paid and remaining funds will be offered as partial refunds.
