Triathlon Victoria is delighted to announce Race 3 of the Victorian Duathlon Series (VDS) in Ballarat, will feature a mixed team relay (MTR) event for the first time in the event’s history.

Already breaking new ground with the first regionally held race of the VDS, the team relay event will be a welcome feature adding another layer of excitement and competition to the Ballarat event.

The MTR race will be limited to 20 teams and is a member-only event. Clubs/squads encouraged to enter teams and individuals nominating to a pool for allocation to a team.

The MTR will be held at the completion of the sprint and dash events. Teams must be of mixed gender and consist of three competitors who each complete the course (1.5km run / 3.4km bike) in relay format, with the third (final) team member crossing the finish line.

The MTR is FREE and open to members competing in the sprint or dash events at Race 3.

Registrations are via email to Rob Ward (Clubs & Programs Manager) at membership@vic.triathlon.org.au and close 1pm Thursday September 20.

If not ‘sold out’ prior, entries may be available on the day, at a cost of $15.00 per team.
