About us

Tri Ferris Promotions and its team of key volunteers have been involved in triathlon and duathlon, both as competitors and organisers, since the late 1980s. Our events roster has included the BBC televised BUPA Bath Triathlon, the Ironbridge Ironman and the 220 Fairford Duathlon. We are all passionate about the sport and our aim is to host good quality, value for money events for abilities all from internationals to first time competitors.

Race Organiser - Lorraine Ferris

Lorraine has been organising races with 220 Magazine since 1988, including National Triathlon Championships, Ironman distance events and several National Duathlon Championships and was Race Director of the 220 Swindon Triathlon in 1995 with a field of 950 competitors. She worked for 220 magazine between 1989 and 2000 in a variety of roles including being editor for a while, and also helped to set up a system of draftbusters in the UK. Organiser of Swindon Duathlon and Cotswold Sprint from 2001, both have been National status events, a technical official at the 2002 Commonwealth Games and a current a BTA Referee although her competitive racing days are now past.

Assistant Organiser and Bike Director - Kevin Ferris

Kevin helped to design the route for the first ever Ironman distance event in the UK (at Cirencester in 1990), and was also the Communications Director for that event. He has helped behind the scenes in the build up to many 220 events and has competed in major events around the world including the first ever ITU World Championships in Avignon. He has also been a member of the British Long Distance Elite Squad. A three times Hawaii Ironman finisher, Kevin now competes less often and can therefore spend more time helping with organisation.
