The Outlaw Triathlon will be supported by Buff for the third year running in 2012. The ‘Original Multifunctional Headwear’ brand will partner the iron distance Outlaw event on 1 July 2012 as 1000 athletes aim to complete a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride and 26.2 mile marathon run around Nottingham, UK.
The partnership will see customised gear available to buy and win, as well as the largest club in attendance winning unique Buff headwear prizes.
As an official partner of the event, Buff will produce a limited edition customised Outlaw Buff, which will be designed and produced over the winter ready for sale in the new year.
Buff will offer an extra special prize to the club with the largest number of entries in the Outlaw by making a customised design incorporating the popular Outlaw logo and the winning club’s logo. This will be produced free of charge and given to every entrant from the winning club.
Founded almost 20 years ago, Buff is now the tubular headwear market leader providing athletes and outdoor enthusiasts with innovative and stylish headwear and technical clothing – perfect for both indoor and outdoor conditions.
Sarah Gowans from Buffera, the UK distributors of the brand said, “The Outlaw is building a fantastic reputation as one of the best triathlon events in Britain, so we’re delighted to be sponsors and to have the opportunity to produce bespoke headgear for the event. The Outlaw logo will work well and we’re looking forward to starting work on the designs.”
Buffera has also confirmed support for all One Step Beyond events in 2012, including the popular Club Relays held at Holme Pierrepont National Water Sports Centre on 25-26 August, as the Original Multifunctional Headwear brand further positions itself at the forefront of multisport events in the UK.
The Outlaw Triathlon, which has just been recognised by British Triathlon as the Event of the Year, will start and finish at Holme Pierrepont National Water Sports Centre. Competitors will aim to complete a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride and 26.2 mile run inside the 17 hour time limit. Entries have been open since August, and just 300 places remain available.
Individual (£225) and Relay (£250) entries are still available for the Outlaw. The individual entry price will rise to £245 on 1 December.
