I see lot sof people got there’s today. Nothing for me. I want my stickers goddammit!
Err, I chucked mine in the bin if you want a few more!
More races getting postponed\cancelled, IM 70.3 Westfriesland has been pushed to September due to the situation in Holland, not sure how that will affect Maastricht, it’s still on 1st August but hopefully they won’t leave it too late before making a decision.
Brutal have also cancelled their midnight mountain marathon.
IM Austria-Karnten 2021 now postponed to 9th September, with option to defer (again) to 2022.
pushing events into September just won’t work effectively as there’ll be too events going on each weekend.
Was it in July?
Yup: 5th July.
Unfortunately, after evaluating the continued status of the COVID-19 pandemic in Austria with local authorities and the resulting restrictions in place, we regret to inform you that the IRONMAN Austria-Kärnten cannot take place in July and has been rescheduled for September 19, 2021.
Getting closer to my race on 1st August in Holland.
I think it will go soon.
There’s still a chance I guess, it being in August, but 50/50 perhaps…
Personally I’ve written off all foreign 2021 events and I was pleased to defer to 2022 as I wasn’t going to attempt to travel in July had IM Austria gone ahead anyway.
@Poet Southport back to full swim because of Krankie opening the pools 
Yeah yeah boi!!!
I’m only down for the sprint.
I’ll be out in ~11mins, barely worth putting a wetsuit on for!
Bollocks to it, it’s only money! My hat is in the draw at least!
Dear Jeff:
Your application for entry into the in-person 125th Boston Marathon, to be run on Monday, October 11, 2021, has been received.
@stenard what did you decide, closes in an hour!
I’m not applying. There’s just too much uncertainty in general, in particular travel, and too much already getting cancelled.
I’m hopeful they might have an extended qualifying window for 2022 versus what it would normally be
I think I’m being optimistic but things might change for better or worse in 6 months and running another sub 3:15 won’t be easy for a while for me.
Fuck it. I have a crazy good marathon route round my mum and dad’s if anyone’s interested- it’s a tough Northamptonshire up and down route but I could end it on the village green so you’d at least get a pint at the end. If enough people interested I’d make a cool to shirt. As for health and safety etc
but I could sign the route and set up a few aid stations. By the way it’s a fucking belter
£5 registration and a pint at the end - date to be confirmed
Do you do one, but in metric?
Looks like it was measured by the same person who does the Ironman bike courses in Germany!
I’m a miles only. Always have been
Forgot I even posted this - must have been stage 6 or 7 in the seven stages
Honestly it’s a brilliant run. It’s up and down but open countryside and quiet B roads.
