✨ 5 0 , 0 0 0 ✨ Milestone reached, achievement unlocked! This week we had our 50,000th child through a Brownlee Foundation finish line since the Brownlee Foundation began in 2014. Such a proud moment for everyone involved!

Very excited to bring a Triathlon back to Leeds. Super-sprint and Sprint distances mean everyone can have a go. Do it for fun, with friends, to raise money for charity. All profits from the event go to the @brownleefdn to give young people more opportunities to do sport.

Nine years ago the Brownlees were triathlon's dominant force, 🥇🥈 in Leeds, Rio & Leeds again. Now they're bringing the Leeds Triathlon back, a mass participation event on Aug 3. Interview with @AliBrownleetri on coming home and life after retirement yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/other-sp…

Whilst we’re super excited about the year ahead we can’t help but look back and reflect on 2024. 13,500 children participated in a Brownlee Foundation 🏅 It wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our wonderful sponsors!

It’s National Volunteering Week! We wouldn’t be able to run our events without a large number of wonderful volunteers coming along so a huge thank you to those who have helped out at one of our events.

The events may look slightly different today than they did back then but the fundamental aim of creating an inclusive opportunity for children to have a fun, positive experience of sport and physical activity hasn’t changed.

We had another brilliant, if not a little soggy, event yesterday at @yorksport1 at @UniOfYork ☔️ It didn’t, however, dampen the spirits of all the children taking part. So great to still see lots of smiling faces! 😄 @Pho3nix_Fdn

It’s that time of the year again! Enjoyed going back to my old school yesterday @BradfordGrammar where over 1000 local children participated in a @brownleefdn Triathlon. It’s a joy to see the foundation grow every year and see even more young people experience the sport.

Our Year 6 have had a fantastic time at the 'Brownlee Triathlon' this afternoon. How exciting to meet the Brownlee Brothers and take part in this brilliant event! #PEatEM @AliBrownleetri @jonny_brownlee @WeAreBDAT
