Dear Athletes,
Virtual racing has been such a lifeline for so many of us over the past year. And, due to popular demand we have added another virtual race to the calendar and invite you to join us for The Spring Chicken, 16 – 18 April 2021. Same format and more prizes to be won!
It’s been great seeing whole families taking part in our virtual races, as this is the spirit of our live events – individuals, families and friends, competing in different disciplines, distances and age groups but united in challenging themselves and supporting each other.
As we edge closer to our first live event weekend at Cholmondeley Castle, Cheshire on 19/20 June, we all seem focused on preparing physically and mentally for the return to racing. What a feeling it will be to be back together and seeing you at our events in Cheshire, North Yorkshire, Kent, Chantilly and Galway this summer. We have shared more training, nutrition and equipment tips to make sure you’re race ready.
Best wishes
Brian Adcock
Race Director, The Castle Series |

It’s back by popular demand for one last virtual race hurrah before our live event calendar starts. The Spring Chicken will take place from 16 – 18 April.
It will follow the same format, same race distances, more great prizes up for grabs and a brilliant way to stay connected whilst we’re still apart.

Our last event weekend saw competitors (aged 6 to 80 years old!) come together from UK, Ireland, Italy, France, Portugal, German, USA and Canada to run, walk, bike and yes even swim, across 23 race distances.
Our live prize giving was a fantastic celebration of all our community members who took part. Thank you!

As part of International Women’s Day, we have had a fantastic month celebrating all the brilliant women in our lives.
Special nod this month to Caroline Sale who has raced in many of our live events and has just completed every race in our winter virtual series. She felt under weather after her jab last week but still managed to pull through, race AND came first! Congratulations Caroline.
