Classic Stinger: 5km trail run / 20km (4 lap) mountain bike / 3km Stinger run
Novice Stinger: 5km trail run / 20km (2 lap) mountain bike / 3km Stinger run
Relay pairs: One runner / one rider

In a world where the number of mountain bike duathlons has reached near extinction, The Stinger bucks the trend and remains as popular as ever.

The format for the classic Stinger has remained gloriously unchanged throughout its life – a 5km off-road run, followed by 20km on mountain bike before you head out on The Stinger run. It may only be 3km, but it will be 3 km of the deepest mud and steepest hills Newnham Park has to offer. You’ll love it.

You’ll also be able to cut your teeth on the novice Stinger – all the fun and games of the classic, but just half the bike distance. The novice event is for solos only.

With more and more relay pairs entering every year, this is the time to find that perfect team-mate that will guarantee you a podium spot.

The atmosphere is always great, the shouts of encouragement always drown out the groans of the weary, and you’ll all go home with a Stinger souvenir for bragging rights in the office on Monday.

Usual shabby-chic facilities available in Newnham Park.
