About Us - #forthegoodofthehood

We're just a bunch of neighbours from across Kensal Rise, Queens Park, Willesden, Kilburn, Harlesden who want to help as many people as possible overcome barriers to enjoying fun exercise.
We know many people are shy about joining 'clubs' and worrying about feeling a bit out of place.
​​
And some can't afford joining fees or can't commit to club activities.
​​
So Kensal Tri is NOT a club or an already-tight group but a bit of a hotch-potch of different neighbours together #forthegoodofthehood: 4-74 years old, all kinds of shapes/sizes and levels of fitness.
​
We work with local gyms, personal trainers, clubs, generous local businesses to offer free and discounted run, swim, bike, walk, cardio opportunities.
​​​
You can mostly easily see what we're currently up to on Instagram @kensaltri.
​
Our simple goal is to bring lots of us together to:
​​​​
- get fitter, meet new people and make a difference locally
​​​
In other words - we are here #forthegoodofthehood and you are very much invited to help us!

BLENHEIM PALACE TRIATHLON - SAT 7TH JUNE, 2025​
Our most popular event - with over 150 entries every year - is Blenheim Palace Triathlon (where you can run 5km or swim 750m or bike 20km - or do all three).​
​​
We are always the largest team at this national event - incredibly, over 579 people have taken place from our area since 2021!
​
We have our own hospitality area on the day and do our events in the afternoon.​
​
​​We've used the opportunity at Blenheim to fundraise for local charities, raising over £300,000 since 2021!

​
The Saturday Sprint is already sold out for Saturday (we are taking 106 for that) but Super Sprint and Relay are still available and we'd love to take 200 local people overall for this incredible experience.​
