Triathlon

So you want to take on a multi-sport event and raise money for a cause you care about? Consider adding a triathlon or duathlon event to your race calendar.

Triathlon and duathlon events combine running, swimming and cycling, making them excellent events for those who enjoy more than one sporting discipline! They’re a great way to elevate a running event and a way to challenge yourself and learn a new sport.

Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned triathlete, most events offer different competitions for different abilities. For example, some individual athletes might be looking to take part in Olympic distance events to push themselves and their fitness. These events are excellent endurance sports events and are a great option for those who have completed similar events in the past.

Beginner triathlon events are known as sprint events, which might be more suitable for those who have recently discovered triathlons and duathlons. Conventional duathlon races are a run-cycle-run event and are perfect for those less keen to take to the water. Some events offer the option for relay teams to take part or you might choose to take part in a trial event.

Kids triathlons are perfect to get little ones involved, and most event organisers will make them adaptable to suit different children’s abilities. Training for events can be fun for all the family and the day itself is the perfect family day out! There are plenty of incredible events to choose from that will make race day a day to remember.

Whether you’re looking to complete the event in record time or just looking to try something new, a multi-sport event is a great way to raise money for a cause you care about.
