Birkirkara St. Joseph Sports Club hosted its first commitment on the 2023 race calendar when it organised, under the auspices of the Malta Triathlon Federation, the National Standard Duathlon Champions in Fleur-de-Lys.

The duathlon consisted of an 8km (three loops) run, a 30km (12 loops) cycle and a 5km (two loops) run.
