2025 FORMATS
Back in 2025 our much loved standard format of:-
20 Minutes Ski Erg
20 Minutes Bike Erg
20 Minutes Row Erg.
2 Minutes rest between each Erg
DRIATHLON Score = Max Cals added together for all Ergs
DRIATHLON Taster
Same format as our standard DRIATHLON but with lesser durations of 10 Minutes on each Erg with 2 mins rest between each.
1 hour of working out can seem daunting to the younger generation so we are introducing our JUNIOR category with only 10 Minutes on each Erg with 2 minutes rest between. Only for Sub 16 year olds.(2 Age groups of 10-12 and 13-15)
These events will not be part of the standard DRIATHLON season but will run alongside it at Special One Offs (Dates/Venues tbc).
Assemble your squad for teams of 8

Female Pair
Mixed Pair

Female Solo
Work through the DRIATHLON In those categories and each pair and each solo will get an individual score which will go on a leaderboard but all scores will be added together to make a Team score as well.
