The Castle Triathlon Series has confirmed that Wiggle, the UK’s number 1 online cycle and tri-sports retailer, is now its official retail partner for the 2012 and 2013 race seasons. Having won 220 Triathlon magazine awards for an incredible seven years running, Wiggle has become a leading one-stop-shop for triathletes.
The Castle Triathlon Series has built up momentum in recent years and has grown dramatically since its conception in 2009. The series attracted over 5,000 participants for all of last year’s events, held at three castles in the UK and one in France.
Expanding into 2012, all Castle Tri series events are held at some of the finest and most breathtaking locations across the UK and Europe. Featuring Lough Cutra Castle, Cholmondeley Castle, Castle Howard, Chateau de Chantilly and Hever Castle, the series provides diverse backdrops for both participants and spectators.
“Wiggle is a fantastic brand and this partnership will bring together the very best in racing and retail for the ultimate triathlon experience,” said Brian Adcock, Race Director of the Castle Triathlon Series. Martin Talbot, Marketing Director at Wiggle added, “Wiggle is absolutely fired up and raring to go with the Castle Triathlon Series! We want to develop Wiggle’s triathlon event activity and this is a perfect opportunity.
“For a feel good factor, the locations alone are worth the visit. Combine this with the endorphin rush from competing and the atmosphere will be electric! It’s going to be two years full of fantastic, unique and inspiring triathlon events.”
The Castle Triathlon Series enables adults to compete individually or as a relay of two or a relay of three. Mixed relays are encouraged! and the series aims to include families, so that children and parents can race on the same day, making a great family day out. Children from eight to 15 years can compete to win medals and prizes.
As an all-inclusive event series for both novice and experienced triathletes with varying race distances from sprint to Olympic, the Castle Triathlon Series is always marked by its motivational atmosphere. Over the coming two year partnership, both Wiggle and Castle Triathlon are keen to make triathlon events accessible for keen sportspeople to experience and enjoy.
