Superhero Tri at Home 2025 · 1 February 2025

This is the UK’s only mass-participation sports series for the everyday superhero - the UK’s 16 million people with disabilities, and their friends and families. Support DSUK at either an at home or in person event this year.

Story

Superheroes Series is the UK's one and only disability sports series for the Everyday Superhero! The mission is simple: to create fun, full-throttle, mass-participation sports events where people with disabilities – AKA Everyday Superheroes – call the shots & don’t have to worry about cut-off times or equipment restrictions. Everyone can do it - all they ask is that at least one team member considers themselves to have a disability of any kind.

My nephew Laird and I both have disabilities so we have signed up for this "fun and flexible four-week mission" - (although I will tell you in March if it has been fun!).

We have 4 weeks to complete a 750m swim, cycle 20km and walk/run 5km. We will be doing it with our exercise bikes, treadmill and then a few trips to the local swimming pool.

This will be a huge effort for me as I am not in "tip top shape" shall we say? I am turning 50 in March and am using this as a springboard to trying get a bit fitter at fifty!

We will be doing this fundraiser in aid of Disability Snowsport UK (DSUK) who I am currently working for. DSUK have over 40 year's experience teaching adaptive Snowsports, with a vision of removing barriers through skiing & snowboarding. They believe that everyone has the right to access the unique physical, mental & social benefits of Snowsport, regardless of disability, injury, or experience.

Please donate what you can - we know times are tough, and every donations makes a difference - no matter how big or small it is.

Love Sharryn & Laird

PS Laird is 13 and this will be a piece of cake for him.......
