The 2011 ITU Duathlon World Championships was a duathlon competition held in Gijón, Spain from 24 to 25 September 2011 and organized by the International Triathlon Union (ITU). The championship course included a 10k run, a 38.4k bike, and a 5k run. Titles for amateur duathletes, elite paraduathletes, and elite duathletes were awarded during the two days of competition.[1]
Katie Hewison, of Great Britain won her first world championship, winning the women's elite division.[2] Sergio Silva won the men's title despite falling behind the leaders during the bike leg. However, Silva charged through the field during the last run segment to claim the win.[3]
Sergio Silva had won the elite men's race but was stripped of his title after testing positive for methylhexaneamine. The positive test resulted in a six-month ban for Silva, instead of the standard two-year suspension, as Silva was able to convince the ITU that he took the substance inadvertently.[7]
