Fantastic Marvel Superhero Tri Event

Superhero Tri Event - 16th August 2025

On the 16th of August two coaches of Brunel and UET friends and families joined over 5000 'everyday' Superheroes to take part in the Tri Marvel event at Dorney Lake in Windsor.

Staff, children, young people and their family and friends travelled together on  wheelchair accessible coaches to the event. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed being able to take part in the challenges as a family. 

An impressive line-up of Paralympic medalists were there to support the event, the UK’s only large-scale sporting challenge designed specifically for people with disabilities. Taking to the start line was table tennis star Will Bayley, a Paralympic, World and European champion, alongside Paralympic and World rowing champion Laura Sugar, and Paralympic and World cycling champion James Ball. 

Now celebrating its eighth year, the Superhero Tri invites participants to team up with their ‘Sidekicks’ – friends or family members who support them along the way offering a rare chance to share the joy and buzz of the race side by side.

We would like to say a huge thank you to our Brunel and UET children, young people, their family, friends and staff who helped to make this such a brilliant event.
