Chilathlon 2025

/in /by

A huge thank you to Rebecca and Nick Wasey for organising this year’s Chilathlon – the seventh annual Chilton Triathlon.

Taking place on Sunday 15th June, the event was a big success, with perfect weather conditions and all 32 participants making it safely round the course. After the 750m swim (two laps of Chilton Lake), the competitors took on the 2oom uphill swim just to reach the transition area. The 20km bike ride took in the best views of the district including the climb to Ashendon via Chearsley, followed by Brill’s Tram Hill, before heading back to Chilton for the final stage: the 5km cross-country run from Chilton House to the strategically placed finish line at the Sports and Social Club in Brill for a well-earned glass of something cold and a delicious pulled pork bap from the Pointer Butcher.

Congratulations to all competitors, and of course to this year’s winners:

2025 Women’s winner: Amy Hill

2025 Men’s winner: Nikos Makris

Over the last two years fundraising from the Chilathlon has been directed towards the Chilton Community Green Space project, and with this year’s contribution the project has achieved its full funding total.

Further thanks must go to Harry and Bertie Aubrey-Fletcher for hosting the competitors and their families, as well as the many volunteers for their invaluable help: the kayakers, the path clearers, the marshals and the tea servers.

The Chilathlon looks set to become an annual event and regular fundraiser for Chilton village projects. If you’d like to be involved as a competitor or a volunteer, please contact Rebecca Wasey on 07929044870.
