The weather was kind to us all weekend (a little less for the event breakdown team today!) and athletes were treated to beautifully misty mornings and bright, sunny afternoons.

The event schedule kicked off with a day of sprint distances across all our multisport disciplines; open water swim races were also enjoyed and endured by athletes of all ages and all abilities; and our youngest triathlete category, 9-10 years old conquered the castle.

We were thrilled to welcome old friends and new faces and a particular Castle Race Series team highlight was meeting Tim Iredale, who competed in his first triathlon aged just 75 years old.

The event village was buzzing with live music from Gobbledigook, delicious food and drink, official event merchandise as well as inflatables, a climbing wall and fairground rides to explore!

A huge thanks must go to our three commentators, Mike Clyne, Helen Murray and Peter Jack. They kept us entertained and up to date with finishers all weekend.

Our media team were set up next to the commentators in the finish shoot so that they could capture some of the amazing stories and journeys of our incredible athletes. We will be sharing these over the coming weeks and hope you find them as inspiring and motivating as we did on the day.

We would like to thank everyone who has already left reviews on Race Check and shared photos on social media. We have loved seeing them here in the Castle Race Series office.

The dates for Hever Castle 2022 have now been released and tickets are available! If you would like to join us on Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th September 2022, do not miss out on the 30% discount. It won’t be around for much longer so book quickly to avoid disappointment.

Thanks again to all the athletes, spectators and crew who made this event a weekend to remember.
