It's time to say goodbye from us, but not to the Killerton Duathlon!!
After creating the event in 2017 and delivering 6 very successful editions, the very hard decision has been made to step away from organising the event. It's always been a family organised event and in many ways it turned into a mini family get together each year for us. Unfortunately the one person missing from this photo is Mum who sadly passed away 3 weeks before this years' event. She was always with us for the whole weekend, from helping set up on the Saturday, being the first person on the registration desk at 7am on race day, to packing away on the Sunday afternoon. The event without Mum isn't the same for us, and now feels like the natural time to end this chapter.
So onto the future! Events successfully passed their trial (😉) when they ran the event this year for us (many thanks again!), and they will be incorporating the Killerton Duathlon into their portfolio of amazing events from 2024 and beyond. We have every faith they'll take good care of the event and take it onto the next level again!
Thank you to Eileen, Tim and the whole team at Killerton, they've been a great supporter of the event ever since we started.
To Ben, Helen and the team at Sportiva for looking after this year and keeping the event going for the future.
To our family, friends and anyone who's helped out over the years.
And of course to anyone that's taken part since 2017, it's been an amazing and very enjoyable run/ride/run!!! 👋☺️
