$1600 is one thing, but for Euros it’s the other side of the planet; and not much better for most Americans.

Off topic but apparently the ding dong in the Long Room was because one of them made racist remarks to Khawaja. Pretty disappointing.

I just can’t get over how manly/masculine/Alpha cricket is viewed; it’s mainly standing around a field watching a couple of guys playing with a ball. It’s more like a social club for DM readers

Not directly related but I’ve always said that UTMB were acting more and more like IM and now that they’ve partenered, it was only ever going in one direction.

Hmm, I might have a dirty little secret I’ve not told anyone and maybe it’s one for the transgender thread :rofl:

Or Ironman can’t extract your gender from their race finishers database into a mail merge :roll_eyes:

Anyway, it would seem they are desperate to get more ladies to Kona.

Dear Athlete,

Congratulations on your finish at 2022 IRONMAN California!


We are pleased to announce that we have extended the slot allocation process for IRONMAN California and will now be offering additional female slots for the 2023 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawai’i on October 14, 2023. Please note that the number of additional slots are limited and every age group is not guaranteed a slot.

Athletes who earn a slot will receive an email with a link from ACTIVE to register for the 2023 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawai’i. Athletes will have 48 hours to redeem their registration link. If an athlete does not accept the slot within 48 hours, it will roll down to the next eligible finisher within the age group.

doesn’t look as if IM have endeared themselves to the Swansea 70.3 finishers yesterday - handing out 2022 finishers shirts with 2023 stuck over the date.
