World's biggest for duathletes
Richmond Park is the race venue and, with two different distances to enter, it is a very popular event.
The London races are held on closed roads so it appeals to novice and elite multi-sport athletes.

Pete won his race entry in a competition and John decided to accompany him and race the sprint distance whilst he was there.
Results: Full distance (10km run, 40km bike, 5km run) - Pete Nicholls 2:49.04; Sprint distance (5km run, 20km bike, 5km run) - John Caborn 1:36.30.
Also racing at the weekend was Ellie Norman, competing at the Humber Coastal Half Marathon. Again warm windy weather made this race a big challenge.
The 13.2-mile run starts and finishes on Cleethorpes sea front and the course takes athletes through beautiful countryside on flat roads.
Ellie completed the race in 2:26.
