If you over indulged at Easter and the Marathon has inspired you to get fit Barnardo’s iTRI virtual triathlon could be for you!
The children’s charity challenge you to swim 2.4 miles, cycle 112 miles and run 26.2 miles. The challenge can be completed over the course of a month as part of a brand new virtual triathlon to raise money for vulnerable children and young people across the country.
The new Barnardo’s iTRI challenge kicks off on June 1 and is free to enter.
However, rather than taking part in an organised race, participants will have the freedom to complete the set distances for running, cycling and swimming in their own time and at their own pace from anywhere in Scotland or the UK.
Participants can either do the whole distance in one go or spread the distances out over several days – or even the entire month of June.
Completed miles can be tracked using Strava and MapMyFitness apps or participants can manually log their workouts via their online profile.
Everyone who takes part is encouraged to raise as much money as they can for Barnardo’s Scotland, which last year supported more than 16,300 vulnerable children, young people, parents and carers across the Scotland.
Barnardo’s Scotland Director, Martin Crewe, said: “Taking part in the charity’s triathlon is a fantastic opportunity to test your fitness whilst raising vital funds to help support vulnerable children across the country. Please do consider taking on the challenge.”
Free registration for the iTRI challenge is now open until June 14, 2019.
The challenge can be completed at any time between June 1 and June 30, 2019. To sign up, download your fundraising pack or for more information please visit: itri.barnardos.org.uk
