The Liverpool Triathlon
Sunday 26th June, 2011
Thank you so much to all of our triathletes whom took to the streets of Liverpool last Sunday, 27th June to raise money for World Child Cancer.
We have had some amazing fundraising endeavours, some wonderful stories and some incredible training efforts, so thank you.
"I am running in memory of my partner, who died of a stomach cancer last January and I am running to raise money for childhood cancer. Cancer is a terrible disease. When my partner was in hospital in Galway, Ireland, seeing the young children fighting this illness with such courage was humbling. My partner was an extremely fit person and a very good footballer and runner. I also lost my mother and my nephew at the age of 19. They all suffered but to think there are children who may not get the help they need when dealing with great pain doesn;t bear thinking about. Cancer touches all of us in some way. I want to turn my negative energy into something positive for myself and this charity."
We look forward to seeing you again in 2011.
The race is accessible and you don’t have to be a World Class athlete with all of the kit to take part. You can find two friends and enter as a team, meet like-minded competitors by joining the Novice training days, try the shorter “Sprint” distance as a triathlon taster - or, do the whole thing and set yourself a massive challenge for 2011.
Taking part in one of the most iconic cities in the world this is the triathlon to TRI.
