Doha Triathlon 2019
The 2019 Doha Triathlon will take place on Friday 8th February 2019, in the surrounding area of the Museum of Islamic Art (MIA), with the picturesque view of Doha’s skyline in the backdrop.
In addition to last year’s Olympic, Sprint and Super Sprint distances, this year triathlon is giving a chance to the kids to take part in duathlon for two age groups 7-9 and 10-12 years old.
Distances:
Kids Duathlon – 2 km bike, 800m run (Ages: 7-9 and 10-12 years old)
Super Sprint – 375m swim, 10 km bike, 2.5k run (Ages: 13-15 and 16+ adults)
Sprint – 750m swim, 20 km bike, 5k run (16+ adults)
Olympic – 1500m swim, 40 km bike, 10k run (16+ adults)
The swim will be taking place in the bay behind the Museum. Doha average sea water temperature in February is about 19 degrees Celsius (66.2 Fahrenheit) and therefore, as per ITU rules, the use of wetsuit will be most likely optional.
Transition will be placed next to Richard Serra’s ‘7’ Sculpture. The cycling leg will be along the Corniche and back to the Museum Park for the run.
