I did a duathlon about 6 months ago after about 2 years of switching between running and cycling. It was the first competitive event of any kind that I had done and even though the bike stage was the most lonely stage ever for me, I absolutely loved every minute of the whole event. Cycling after a run actually felt amazing for me. I'd never been more exhausted in my life but I'm definitely planning to do another one soon
I love duathlons. Always surprised this isn't the normal pathway into tris. I'm not a swimmer so suffer through swims, but would love to substitute a paddleboard instead!!
Duathlons are fantastic - a real sufferfest by the second run! Wish they didn't (largely) stop over the summer to be replaced by triathlons - would be good to have more options all year round (and by the way the ETU Punta Umbria last weekend was amazing - not a pothole in sight on the bike!! - well done our Spanish hosts)
Like the fish 😎. There is a lake i swim in sometimes that is known for the fish coming after swimmers. They're just small fish in an inland lake. They don't even have teeth, they'll poke you in the chest of your wetsuit or try to nip at your feet. They can't really hurt you. But when they nip at your feet, that certainly wakes you up 😀. 🐟🐠🐟🐠
I'm a runner who has just joined a triathlon club. Today I did my first transition from 40kms bike to 5km run and my legs were like lead!! How often should I practice transition from bike to run??
How do i get into duathlons events? I would like to enter my 1st event, do i need to be in a club? Or can i enter online for a event and enter as a individual? Also do i need a time trail specifc bike or can i use my road bike?
I was really hoping for a bit of a training plan here, as you do with so many of your other videos. Any tips on where to find a good 12 week duathlon training plan?
There's only (little) proof that they help with recovery afterwards. So wearing them during a race is just trying to look fancy, the benefit is close to none. But yeah, if they feel nice and look good, go for it

Have you ever done a duathlon? Let us know!
No I haven't but I do the Aquathlon (the run/swim/run OR swim/run) Will you do a video on Aquathlon?
I have done duathlons and love it. It is actually my preferred type of race. One time I did a double duathlon of run/bike/run/bike/run.
Yep, a small local sprint race, and I came 3rd out of 24 in my age group. The only podium photo I have!
Tons. I like dus more then tris as i am only on ok swimmer.
@@johnnguyen270 i love aquathlons as well. Oddly in Michigan there is not that many of them.
Global Duathlon Network! Finally! Welcome to the dry side!!
They closed all swimming pools in Poland as of today, so I guess you picked the right moment to post this.
Done one, loved it. Definitely better, at least until I progress from "I don't drown" to "I actually can keep up on swim with the rest"

Should’ve put this video out *before* the European duathlon championships that took place in Spain last weekend 🤓🤦🏻♂️
Duatholn are great training/race days in the winter when the lakes are closed especially as more and more events are becoming available
Thanks a lot for this video. You guys are great and you do so much for the multi sport world. Please keep up the good work.
I came here because I want to try out Triathlon, but I can't swim. 😄
just signed up for a cross duathlon. YT knows what i need.
I prepare by pulling out a deck chair and watch. RUN twice.....these folk are crazy.
I think I am a duathlon kind of person. Not sure yet, but pretty sure. I can't stop thinking about something touching my feet in water.

Hello for short duathlon I was using Pyro platform avoiding changing shoes it was really convenient and time saving
I'm doing a Tri soon, but will be moving over go duathlons until I sort my swimming out
Sounds a plan!
Thanks for this!
🙌
Planning my first next year
Hope to see you at the middle distance world championships in Viborg, Denmark! ;-)
It takes me FOREVER to warm up while running, so duathlons are a special kind of torture for me. I much much rather start out with swimming!!!
I love duathlon.
Who needs swimming 😄

Do an aquathlon video!
You mean an aquabike?
@@jshepard5840 no, aquathon. They are a swim/run, or run/swim/run format. Very fast, very fun.
I had a triathlon this Sunday that was turned into a duathlon. I'm disappointed because I worked so hard on the swim.
Could we have more videos on duathlon?
jaysis,thats a serious bike
Well what's the craic with ya is ur aul fella still working in dublin?
I came looking for info because a lot of what they call " adventure races" do a kayak instead of swim .... is there even a proper name for these :) 😀
hi sir , i want to ask something , for triahlon or duathlon , are there need to use uci approved roadbike or tt bike ?
Started training again after Covid hospitalization in Sept 20. Gained 15 kgs . Any suggestions on training apps to help me get back to shape ?
How do i get into duathlons events? I would like to enter my 1st event, do i need to be in a club? Or can i enter online for a event and enter as a individual? Also do i need a time trail specifc bike or can i use my road bike?

Try the internet
Any tips for a swim/run?
Hey thanks for the video. What is the exact name for the pedals which I can use with running shoes. I don’t get it right (not native English speaker)
Pyro pedals
HUZZAH!!
Do you have a video on calf sleeves or knee high compression socks?
There's only (little) proof that they help with recovery afterwards. So wearing them during a race is just trying to look fancy, the benefit is close to none. But yeah, if they feel nice and look good, go for it
@@devidia I'm pretty much of that belief as well. but if you think they work, then it's probably worth it.
I have a hybrid bike can I do duathlon
Depends on which bikes does Regulation allow
Over a minute of this video is apologizing for making the video.
like you guys, but get to the point.
