The London Duathlon...

[Irishrower]

Is anyone doing this, (1 running lap round richmond park, 2 laps by
bike and then half a lap by foot again...)...

I enquire as I am keen to do it as my first duathlon before trying a
tri...but (even though i have good fitness), I still am only a novice
and therefore dont want to be miles of the leading pace.

Is the field of competitors quite varying from those who are hardcore
to those who just want to do something different and a bit of
fun....(in which case ill be somewhere in the middle hopefully)

Thanks
