UK Triathlon and Cancer Research UK are proud to announce the launch of the CRUK Wave. The CRUK Wave is aimed at encouraging more participants, of any age, gender or ability, to unite and take on a challenge for the purpose of funding life-saving research into all 200 types of cancer.

This change comes after the success of the UK Triathlon Pink Wave, it reflects the movement towards a more inclusive environment for all participants who want to complete a triathlon at their own speed, whilst raising money for life-saving research.  

We want to encourage everyone to have a go! Any age, any ability, just get together for the camaraderie and challenge, whilst raising vital funds for research into beating cancer.

UK Triathlon will donate £10 from every CRUK Wave entry to Cancer Research UK. Cancer Research UK is a registered charity in England and Wales (No. 1089464) and Scotland (No. SC041666)

Thanks for making my Wife's dream come true!

Great event and superbly organised.

Best wishes to each and every one of you.

Hi,

Please can you pass on my thanks and appreciation to allof the the organisers and volunteers who made today's event such a super one.

It was my first triathlon and I really enjoyed it.

There was a very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere and allthe marshals and coordinators were just brilliant!I couldn't have wished for a better morning.

Thank you so much,

Yours sincerely, Jo Johnston

Hi to you all

Indeed a great day and thank you all. As this was my first Tri I didn't know what to expect, however, it was great. The organisation was absolutely first class and the event, at least for me, went without a hitch. Although the event was a great personal challenge to me, rather than putting me off, it has reinvigorated me and I am determined to enter events next year and as long as my physical well-being permits. Once again, many great thanks to everyone involved. Very best regards,

Steve

Hi, as this was my first Tri

I didn't know what to expect, however, it was great. The organisation was absolutely first class and the event, at least for me, went without a hitch. You had even "organised the weather" as it started raining only after I had finished! Thanks again for a great day and I will be entering again. Best regards,

Peter
