ETU European Duathlon Championships 2012 – Qualifier Status

We have had communication from the ETU confirming the date of the European Duathlon Champs, which are to be held on the 29th April alongside Powerman Holland. This event is not a standard distance Duathlon, it is longer, therefore it has a different entry process. The ETU are not asking national federations to nominate a team, individuals are allowed to enter and from there they are nominated. Please contact the BTF for more information.
