As an official Charity Friend of the Superhero Series (the UK’s one and only disability sports series) we’re putting a call out to our own community of Superheroes to join us at either the Superhero Tri or Wonderwheels events powered by Marvel this year.
Now in their 10th year, there are plenty of live and virtual events to choose from, with something for everyone… no matter where you’re located!
All events
Live – in person events
Superhero Tri powered by Marvel
Location: Dorney Lake, Windsor
Date: Saturday 15 August 2026
Celebrate 10 years of Superhero Tri with super-sports tasters, entertainment and special celebrity team captains. There are three distances to choose from with no cut off times and many ways to take part – whether that’s floats, boats, powerchairs, adaptive bikes, trikes and more!
You can fly solo and take on all three stages (a swim, cycle & push/run) or team up and share the fun for a team relay, OR recruit your trusted sidekicks to join you every step of the way throughout the entire course.
The Superhero Tri distances to choose from:
- Sprint Superhero Tri: Swim 150m, Bike 3km, Push/run 1km
- Half Superhero Tri: Swim 400m, Bike 10km, Push/run 2.5km
- Full Superhero Tri: Swim 750m, Bike 20km, Push/run 5km
Virtual – at home events

No matter what challenge you choose, we’ll support you the entire way!
