Triathlon Exposed!

Tuesday, 15th November 2005

The brave members of Ful-On Tri Club based in Fulham, South West London, have posed naked for a cheeky collection of 12 black and white photos to demonstrate the three main disciplines of triathlon swimming, cycling and running.

But not wanting to be Too naughty, strategically placed triathlon equipment from bikes, heart-rate monitors and running shoes, to swim caps, goggles and wetsuits, preserve our calendar girls' and boys' dignity!

Aimed at raising awareness of one of the fastest growing sports in the UK, the glossy double-paged wall calendar will also raise money for the charity ASPIRE which supports people with spinal injuries. Funds will also go towards providing coaches and equipment for Ful-On Tri Club.

Ful-On Tri spokesperson Gavin Bradley said: "Triathlon is a fun and exciting sport and we wanted a fun yet unique way of showing this.

"We are a truly diverse Club and, as far as we know, the first triathlon club to produce a naked calendar, particularly a unisex version. We had a lot of fun shooting it!

"We hope the calendar will inspire more people to take up the sport as well as raising vital funds for our chosen charity and our Club."
