Story

This is my first entry into the Biathlon of Foolishness and just another crazy thing for me to do to help raise funds for Mission Motorsport, at least this time I'm not training to run 10K with zero running experience!

While I'm not from a military background, having volunteered at Race of Remembrance for a number of years, I see first hand, the work that the charity does - quite simply amazing! I want to help them continue this.

The Biathlon of Foolishness (BoF) is a fun and entertaining event that also serves as a fundraiser for The Forces’ Motorsport Charity during the Race of Remembrance weekend 8-10 Novemeber 2024.

It features a half-mile jog, a thrilling descent down a cliff, and a brisk plunge into the Irish Sea.

Over Remembrance weekend, the Mission Motorsport team and hundreds of others descend on Anglesey circuit for a weekend of racing like no other. A 12hr endurance race - paused for a pitlane Remembrance service at 11am on Sunday - and preceded by Supercar Saturday and the Biathlon of Foolishness!

For many of our beneficiaries, traditional Remembrance services are overwhelming, stirring difficult memories. The weekend's racing events offer a welcome distraction and foster a supportive community, always ready to offer comfort and connection. To lighten the emotional load, the Biathlon of Foolishness brings some fun and vital funds for Mission Motorsport
