Overview

The Donut Duathlon takes advantage of the Torbay Velopark to offer a fast, flat and completely traffic free duathlon course. Ideal for all ages and for beginners and seasoned athletes alike,  the Donut will help kick start your season with a flat parkland run, a fast ride on the smooth tarmac of the Velopark followed by a shorter run to finish.

The Donut Duathlon is very family friendly. We offer shorter distances for children aged 3 and above in the morning and the main Sprint race in the afternoon.

And there’s a Run Bike Run / Novice event for those new to the sport or who prefer a shorter race.

Medals and donuts for all finishers whichever race they’re doing! For this event any roadworthy bike will do: MTBs, hybrids or road bikes are all fine. All races are now non drafting.

This event is part of Donut Duathlon Spring.

Sportiva Events is doing its best to minimise the environmental impact of this event. Here are a few of their initiatives:

Sustainability

  • Trees not tees

    For all events which include a t-shirt, there is the option to plant a tree instead through a partnership with Treesnottees

  • Avoid single-use plastics

    New paper cups have been sourced to be fully recycled back into high-grade paper.

  • Optional medals

    Lots of competitors are not interested in finishers' medals so they are now optional. A £2 charity donation is made for every medal not selected.

  • Swim hats on request

    Swim hats are provided for open water swimming events as they help the water safety teams keep track of swimmers. However for all pool events, swim hats are now on request to reduce wastage.

  • Reuseable zip ties and recycling

    Reusable zip ties are used and all rubbish is sorted for recycling after the event.

  • Reducing car use

    At the Burrator 10K running race those who commit to walking or cycling to the event get £5 discount.
