Fancy that.... NACC can offer you a place in any major city marathon except London! You
name a marathon we will see if there are places still available. The New
York is a favourite – places for New York go well before the closing
date in September. Pick up that phone, make your request and we will see
what we can do. In the meantime get your running shoes on and start
training!

cycle and a run. There are three categories that you can compete in,
which consist of different distances:
Super Sprint Distance - 400m (swim) / 10km (bike) / 2.5km (run)
Sprint Distance - 750m / 20km / 5km
Olympic Distance - 1500m / 40km / 10km
Team Racing – 1 Swimmer (750m / 1 Cyclist (20km) / 1 runner (5km)
We have now filled all the Crohn's and Colits
UK (NACC) Charity places for 2010, but we still welcome Own
Place Triathletes and we can offer sponsorship forms and running
vests for anyone or any team that have their own place(s) in the
London Triathlon 2010 and who would like to fundraise for us.
Crohns' and Colitis UK will have a Charity
Marquee at the London Triathlon on Sunday 8th August 2010 so if
you know anyone who is taking part in the London Triathlon, or
who is raising funds for Crohn’s and Colitis UK, then please get
