Need a new challenge for 2011? Triathlon anyone?

Or more precisely an Ironman. Ben Greetham wonders if anyone would like to join him down in Wales:

"September the 11th 2011 is the inaugural Ironman Wales which is being held down in Pembrokeshire. The course looks awesome with a mass beach start swim from Tenby. The bike leg is taking in 180k of the Pembrokeshire National Park and the marathon is a 4 loop course heading around Tenby Castle, the town itself, the surrounding countryside and finally finishing back on the seafront.

The organisers have already separately ran a marathon over the run course, a sportive over the bike course and a long swim around the wet bit and each have had heaps of spectators turning out so the big one should be a pretty good day out.

I’m already on the start list as a VC Meudon representative. I thought if a couple more folks fancied it we could get a VCM contingent grinding out some of the training miles together and heading down in September.
