What this race demands

The Julita Duathlon requires an athlete to transition smoothly between moderate-distance running and cycling over a flat to rolling 40 km course.

Run-to-Bike Transition

The opening 5 km run immediately precedes a 30 km bike leg, demanding the physiological capacity to absorb running fatigue and quickly establish high-output cycling cadence.

Aero Sustained Power

The 30 km bike ride around Lake Öljaren combined with only 200 meters of elevation gain favors sustained aerodynamic positioning and steady power output without significant climbing relief.

Closing Run Durability

Athletes must execute a final 5 km run set in the grounds of Julita Gård while managing accumulated leg fatigue from the preceding efforts.
