Creating healthy teams.

Accessible racing

Racing for all.

This event has an ethos of accessibility and inclusivity and wants to be able to offer a race for everyone.

From jumping in a lake, cycling through the woods to running around a castle, there are unforgettable, accessible races for 9–16 year olds at amazing locations.

Elites

Races for champions.

Rising stars and athletes have raced in the Castle Race Series from the very beginning. Many of these triathlon events host qualifying and national championships races in partnership with the BTF, TI and FF Tri, and the obstacle race is now a OCR World Championship Qualifier.

Female focussed

Closing the gap.

Over the last few years female participation has been increased to 38% by adding a greater variety of distances, female-only waves, launching the virtual series and making strategic partnerships.
