70 Wild Miles is a triathlon consisting of a 47 mile cycle, 10 mile canoe and a 13 mile run. It is not a race as such, the real purpose being to assist in the fight against Cancer. So, if you’re the kind of enthusiast to whom the thought of cycling the 47 miles (75km.), canoeing a loch for the next 10 miles (16km.), and finishing with a 13 mile (22km.) run sounds like a fun day out - then this might just be what you are looking for! The added bonus is that it’s all for a good cause and there’s great scenery too - if the weather and your state of fitness let you admire it. You don't have to compete in the event, We're always looking for more VOLUNTEERS to help with the organising and running of the event. Or if you wish to make a donation through sponsorship or direct to the charity we will welcome that as well. The 70 Wild Miles event has supported a number of charities through its history. Including; Cancer Research, Cystic Fibrosis Research, Tenovus and CLIC Sargent. In 2011, we were extremely proud to support two great charities; CLIC Sargent and Tenovus.
