Tri Kidz was set up to deliver triathlon to primary schools for free. We get as many kids and schools involved as possible and have so far delivered to 50,000 children in the North West. We deliver five days a week to schools but because Tri Kidz has proved so popular, we can only deliver one session to each school every year.
We send through a presentation about triathlon which the teacher can show in assembly the week before to introduce swim, bike and run. Our most popular activity is the iron-distance challenge. We mimic the swim with resistance bands, the bikes are on turbos and they run around a short loop. Each year-group comes out for 45mins to complete 3mins of swimming, cycling and running with a 2min break between each. The school aim to complete the iron-distance by the end of the day.

How to Carb Load - Packing your working cells with carbohydrates in the build-up to your big race is a proven strategy to race stronger and faster...
Whichever distance triathlon you're racing, the intensity and duration of your activity will see your body tap into its stores of carbohydrates (in the form of glycogen) to power your effort. While it's possible to top up your tank on the go, it's better to start your event with your stores full to the brim.
The Olympic Champion - On 31 July, Great Britain's Alex Yee put together arguably the greatest one-day performance we have ever seen at an Olympic Games to win gold. And we were there at the finish line to speak to tri's new poster boy...
The opening line of the race report read how 20 years on from New Zealand’s first and only Olympic triathlon gold medal, Hayden Wilde had put in a careerbest performance to regain the title for his nation. Then Alex Yee comes around the corner.Yee’s charge, seemingly from nowhere on the final lap of the 10km run in Paris, didn’t just help him become the most decorated Olympic male triathlete of all time, and didn’t just cap a rivalry that has been building for six years, it left seasoned watchers of swim, bike, run in awe. It will go down as one of the greatest triathlon races; Yee, still just 26, as one of the greatest triathletes. His medals from Paris added to the two from Tokyo, leaving his haul at two gold, a silver and a bronze, and counting.
