I had a look at the UK half Ironman site, but it claims to be the 'Toughest 70.3 course in the World!" and features 52 hills in 56 miles![&:]
Ouch!
Is there something less intimidating out there?
I like the sound of the M Dot races abroad but I guess all the costs will soon add up: flights, bike transport, accomodation...
Maybe I should be asking, What's the most accessible European 70.3 for a newbie?
2011, maybe. Ideally somewhere that can be combined with a short holiday for the family. An "event" race does sound good, one day!
Not sure how up to date this is but....
Austria ticks quite a few boxes for me!
It's a spreadsheet with (temp, climbs, humidity, etc etc)
Just realised that your talking about 70.3 as well - this is for full ironman -
So pretty much ignore me!! [:D]
The scenery in the area is also stunning!!
There is also quite a lot of encouragement to be had from your fellow competitors, a surprisingly friendly, chatty atmosphere, I had many a conversation when biking and running (swimming not so much!!)
