One Step Beyond delivered the first of a nationwide series of 24 Tata Kids Of Steel events yesterday on behalf of British Triathlon. The Tata Kids of Steel Series started in Newham, the 2012 Olympic Games host borough yesterday, with over 850 local school children from 15 schools taking part in the first of 24 events.

Over the five years that One Step Beyond has been delivering the series on behalf of British Triathlon the series has introduced over 35,000 children from nearly 400 schools across the UK to the sport of triathlon.

The format follows the form of a short swim of 40-60 metres, followed by a traffic free cycle of 800 – 1200 metres and a run of approximately 400 metres. The events are fully inclusive ensuring children have a fun and positive experience of sport, regardless of ability. Bikes and helmets are provided and every child that participates receives a t-shirt, swim cap, gym sack and medal.
