MBNA Chester Marathon

October, 6th 2024
First up, we hit the streets of Chester for the MBNA Chester Marathon. Known for its stunning course and electric atmosphere, this UK marathon is a runner’s dream, attracting everyone from seasoned marathoners to first-time racers.
For this event, we supplied our trusty race bibs to help runners feel race ready and race directors feel organised. Not only do our bibs make athletes look cool and help track their times, but they also give a shoutout to sponsors and keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. Who doesn’t love a well-organised race day?
If you’re hosting a marathon, our race bibs offer an ideal solution for athlete identification – be sure to contact us for more info!
Conquer the Castle

We then flew over to Denmark for the legendary Conquer the Castle race. In this OCR event participants tackled challenging obstacles while running through beautiful castle grounds. Talk about a race with a view!
To make sure athletes were ready to conquer (pun intended), we provided race packs, wristbands, and race bibs. The wristbands were key for easy athlete identification, and our race packs made sure every participant had everything they needed to dominate the course.
Whether you’re hosting an OCR or another endurance event, our products will help your day run seamlessly. Enquire now to learn how we can support your next event!

October 12th and 13th, 2024
Next stop: Australia! The legendary Coolangatta Gold is one of the toughest endurance races out there. Bringing athletes together to swim, paddle, run, and surf-ski across miles of beautiful Australian coastline. This Surf Life Saving Australia event is not for the faint of heart, but it sure is amazing to watch!
We supplied temporary tattoos – the perfect solution for this event. These athlete-number tattoos stayed put through water, sweat, and sand, making it easy for race officials and fans to spot their favourite competitors. Plus, they looked pretty cool too!

October 13th, 2024
We then headed to Hong Kong for the Asia Triathlon Cup, where athletes swam, cycled, and ran their way to glory. This race is a major event in the triathlon world, and the energy and talent on display were nothing short of inspiring!
Sportstiks supplied race bibs, tattoos, and tri-sets for the action-packed competition. Our tattoos (once again proving to be an athlete’s best friend) helped keep things slick and smooth, while the tri-sets ensured that every competitor was kitted out with the right race materials. It was great to see our products supporting such high-calibre athletes!

October 26th, 2024
We wrapped up October at the iconic 2024 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. Germany’s Patrick Lange claimed his third title in a record-setting 7:35:53, dedicating his emotional win to his late mother. This legendary race saw over 2,400 athletes conquer a gruelling 140.6-mile course under intense heat and winds.
Sportstiks provided durable temporary tattoos for easy athlete identification – perfect for enduring Kona’s tough conditions. It was an honour to contribute to this storied event, where elite athletes pushed their limits on one of the world’s most challenging courses.
