Entry is available through the Triathlon Ireland website, and strong participation is expected from local triathlon clubs and the wider community.
With four clubs working together, the Mayo Duathlon Series promises to be a standout feature of the 2026 sporting calendar and a great showcase of the growing triathlon scene in the county.
