The Bermuda Triple Challenge is upon us again.
The three-day event, which starts today, will hold obstacle challenges for participants to challenge themselves physically — all in the name of charity!
Co-founder Dr Reid Robinson said: “Many charities are struggling to keep their heads above water and we continue to support those in need.
“ We also acknowledge that many events have the appearance of being ‘competitive’ and we want to change that perception.
“It’s about fun, functional movement with friends and family.
“The Bermuda Triple Challenge addresses both components, incorporating mental and physical challenges while raising funds for the charities that help marshal the events. It’s a win-win.”
“This year, we’ve designed some new and interesting challenges. All the challenges are very achievable to all participants, but if you’d rather skip an obstacle, no big deal, we’ve got something else special for you,” said fellow co-founder Jason Correia.
“Having fun is important, so don’t be afraid to humour yourself in your team’s fanciest dress up costumes.
“It’s certainly something that is encouraged.”
The charities are Knowledge Quest, The Sunshine League, Raleigh International, Bermuda Insurance Institute, New Beginnings Education Trust, St. George’s Prep, East End Primary & Somerset Primary PTAs.
These events wouldn’t be possible without the tremendous support within the community and especially our leading sponsors KRyS Global, ACE Group and Butterfield & Vallis, which have shown fantastic support.
