Duathlon World Championships 2021 in Aviles

Avilés is once again a world reference in sport as the Duathlon World Championships will be held for the second time in the city on November 6 and 7. After the success of the celebration of the world championship in 2016, the city again welcomes a multitude of duathletes from around the world in what will be the first international sporting event to be held in Asturias after the pandemic.
