I am contacting you regarding Wiggles Race team for 2012 after reading an article on tri247.com.
I am a very keen triathlete and eager to improve my performances to become a top 10 finisher, within my age group, in the next two years. I come from a very active family with 5 of us all competing in triathlon over the last year. My brother James will also be applying for this excellent opportunity. With the support of Wiggle and the team sponsors I believe we will exceed our sporting goals and also be a very marketable asset, one which could be potentially compared to the Brownlee brothers.
In my Career to date I have worked for large international organisations where it has been essential to get customers to buy into my personality and believe in me. This is something which I have proved very successful at and believe I can bring this attributes to the world of Triathlon.
With this in mind I am looking forward to hearing from you about the combined support we can offer each other.
I’m a runner through and through, who grew into a triathlete. I’m from Australia, but have spent the past year living in Norway. That means I haven’t done an ocean swim in months. Instead I run in ice spikes, and cross country ski. But I’ll be back home in Aus in March, and can’t wait to fill my life with swim bike run.
For some people sport is for spectating, for some it’s exercise. For me sport is about going above and beyond.

woops, i thought that was the entry form :s
Hi Charlie – if you head along to our Facebook page the competition app is there…good luck!
Hi Christopher – the entry is through our facebook page – best of luck :)
HI
if you are not on facebook then you cannot enter?
Hi Emily,
the competition is run through facebook so all entries must be through the facebook app as it requires entrants to upload a photo/video & some details & for this to be voted on by the public.
For those of us who live in China, Facebook is blocked/banned so we can’t actually register for this global initiative. But then, its not like China is a 1.3 billion person market where running, cycling and triathlon is just taking off and people are frustrated because there is a lack of shops selling kit so generally have to ship them in from overseas and often find that because of the strengthening chinese currency against others, e.g. the pound (40% increase in 6 years) then purchasing from the UK is an attractive option… wait… is that all right?
But then you could never find a Brit living in China who was a passionate athlete, GB Age grouper in triathlon who also scores podium finishes in most of the races here, is up for any endurance event from running, mountain biking, road racing, triathlons etc, is a keen advocate of sports in the community and would be super passionate to promote a British company abroad… hang on… could you?
Awesome, I didn’t even know there was a blog on Wiggle, will be reading more in the future … and posting comments, hopefully I can offer my own random motherly, coaching, doing and such insight in those responses!
Hi Suzzanne,
It would be great if you could post the name of the athlete search winner just to put the rest of us out of our mesiery so we can go and beast ourselves on the turbo for not being good enough.
Thank you.
Hi Rickie, we are still working our way through the thousands of entries and should have some news by next week…
cheers for your entry :)
