Yeah, I paid to join xpoints and signed up for the half last year, still zero luck in the ballot. It’s a race I’d have loved to do but am kind of done paying to enter the ballot each year. I doubt I’ll bother in future.
Added CeltMan into list (D’Oh, knew I’d miss summat daft), and Outlaw have fired their gun first rather than MDot: the Outlaw Full IM is on 26th July 2026 i.e. the same weekend as this yr. Let’s see what IM Wezzieland do…
T100 Lundunistan is that weekend too!

Does the Celtman Solo Point Five count as a half Ironman? 20th June 2026. 1.5/85/23.7k. Bike leg has a wee hill.
And the same crew do the Restless Xtreme Gravel Triathlon which is sorta a half iron. 22nd August 2026. 1.8/50/25k. Gravel bike with wee hill.
And Ullswater Epicman is confirmed for 28th June 2026.
updated cheers GM8ie
The Celtman solo looks interesting
I thought that until I saw them all in winter wetsuits
i am not a cold water swimmer either
2045m elevation in 84km ride
Still can not get eyes my passed the swim unfortunately
would be some serious weeing in wetsuit going on
Steel man
A grass-roots middle-distance triathlon at Ellerton Lake & surrounding countryside. Features a 1.2mi (5km) swim, 58mi (93km) bike with moderate elevation, and 20km run. Friendly, well-supported and accessible.
That 5km swim should sort the wheat from the chaff
1.2mi does not equal 5km
That is just under 2km closer to 1.92km in fact
