Swim, bike and run events are taking place this summer
This summer, British women will have their chance to take part in a unique event designed just for them. Triathlon Pink, the world’s leading women’s-only triathlon series, is coming to the UK with five exciting races from June – August 2014.
This new series will change the way women view triathlons; combining a fun ‘girl’s day out’ with feel-good fitness. The swim, bike and run events are aimed at women of all abilities, ages and backgrounds, meaning anyone can take part with minimal training and preparation.
Triathlon Pink events will be like nothing seen before in the UK, from the high-end look and feel of each venue, energised entertainment and personalised service that will make every woman feel like a star.
Lisa Pringle, Director of Sport 3 Event Management UK, said: “Triathlon Pink really offers women the chance to socially connect while being active and supporting each other towards a common goal.
“The format provides women with a safe and non-threatening environment to participate as well as giving them the rare chance to do something just for themselves.”
Having already raised over AUD$1 million for breast cancer research since launching in Australia in 2006, the Triathlon Pink series is aiming to raise £1million for their official charity partner Breakthrough breast cancer - the UK’s leading charity dedicated to stopping women getting, and dying from, breast cancer.
Tris Jones, National Participation Manager at Breakthrough Breast Cancer, said: “We’re really excited to be Triathlon Pink’s official charity partner. Taking part in physical activity is a great way to reduce your risk of developing Breast Cancer so we’d encourage all British women to sign up to this brilliant event. Get fit, feel good, reduce your risk and help raise much-needed funds for our vital breast cancer research. Together we can beat breast cancer.”
