Superheo Series Triathlon

Do any PH'ers have any experience of this event? It's an inclusive triathlon (pretty cool)

I am going to enter with my youngest and possibly the rest of the family but I'm wondering how we would go about towing him for the swim? He's unlikely to throw himself into the lake (he'll be wearing a life vest!) but he'll need to be strapped in. Any ideas?

I've not - but thanks for drawing attention to this. I'd not previously heard of it but it looks great and I hope your preparation and event go really well.

That does looks pretty cool - hope you have a fab race there! Dorney's a great location and the water (from what I remember the last time I competed there) is nice, clear and doesn't taste too bad!!

Well, I don't think you can go too far wrong in taking a leaf or two out of the legendary Team Hoyt handbook - I don't know whether you've heard of them, but if not, have a watch of this:-

There's simply not enough superlatives to describe their story - heartwarming and truly inspirational. The world would be a better place with more people like them in it.

Yeah I've seen Team Hoyt before. Absolutely incredible.
