IMPORTANT: Please read if you are entered in The Brutal Triathlons, Big Brutal Swim or Seriously Brutal Duathlons.

With a heavy heart, we have to break the news to all the Brutal Triathlon, Seriously Brutal Duathlon and Big Brutal Swim entrants that the 2021 events are to be postponed to 2022 (September 10th - 11th. This date is still TBC).

There are many reasons for this decision, but the main one is to support the local community, Llanberis, that allows us to hold our events every year. We are just not comfortable bringing 500+ people into such a small village whilst Covid-19 is still a real threat.

Also, as we mentioned in the previous post, holding this event with social distancing measures would be very difficult for all concerned. 

Other reasons include staffing problems, issues with booking equipment and services. Also, many entrants have been forced to defer due to lack of training (because of Covid), and athletes outside the UK cannot travel.

We know this is incredibly disappointing to everyone, and we hope you all understand that we have no choice with this decision.

Going forward, because of DecaUK next year, we will only be holding the Half, Full and Double in 2022. So if you are entered for the Brutal Triple or Quin, you can change to the DecaUK version of the race or roll over to 2023 when we hold the Half, Full, Double, Triple and Quin.

For all other entries, you do not need to contact us regarding your 2022 entry. It will automatically roll over. If you are unable to attend the 2022 event or transfer to DecaUK, you will be able to defer to 2023.

We really appreciate everyone who has supported us over this time and are so looking forward to seeing you all again next year!

Claire and Jim
