Triathlons with a Difference

handyrob

I have completed a few sprint distance triathlons and really enjoyed them but now im looking for something a bit different for my next big race. Does anyone have any suggestions about a race or event that is a bit different. The sort of events that spring to mind are Toughguy or the 3 peaks challenge although I like the multi sport element of triathlons. I had heard of an event that started with canoeing, then mountain biking and then hill running. Something like this would be good. Any suggestions would be welcome as this is going to be a charity fundraiser so the stranger the better

Adventure races are awesome fun and great for training and keeping fit over the winter when you might not be able to get out on a road bike!

I'd recommend Wensleydale Tri. One of the toughest Tri's out there. 1800M swim, 42 mile bike ride (4 hill climbs) then a 6 mile fell run (500m climb), 6 mile run back down!

this one sounds good - is pretty hardcore though!
