The Bison Hill Challenge 2012

This annual duathlon event is the Toughest Duathlon in the UK! This duathlon event is a great event for all athletes, both new and old, however, The Bison Hill Challenge 2012 will not be a gentle welcome to the sport of duathlon. It will be the ultimate measure of your end of season fitness!

There is nowhere to hide with the two runs taking you down and then up the downs on a mixture of trails and surfaces. As if this isn't enough the bike start will lull you into a false sense of security with a flat section and a fast descent followed by another relatively flat section taking you to the beast that is Bison Hill a 1 mile steep climb which will be repeated another three times. This will really bite!

This race will sap your energy and if that's not enough to deal with there is the wind which explains why it is a kite-flying and gliding hotspot!
