Anyone up for a TT race 2026?
@jeffb has sort of floated this on 5th August
Don’t be fooled by the name “long course”, it’s basically a sprint and pretty flat 
Or maybe a UK based race?

So am I.
99.9% sure Im not doing it.
Copenhagen has sold out so not doing that either.
Gone off Tallin with the transport and missing baggage.

Good man @Bob
I see that IM Lanza is May 23rd next year and this appears to be compatible with half term holidays

Feels like a bargain at 655 euros all in! Compared to Copenhagen.

No matter what I target I always seem to peak in May

I’m about 90% yes I think, despite saying never again after 2010 there’s been an itch for the last few years to return. If it’s not full in early October I’ll probably pull the trigger, got too much to pay for this month unfortunately.

I’m quite interested in Leeds. It would give me a reason to get running again. I say this every year though, so probably best to ignore me. As I said in the other thread, I’d do AdH again but wouldn’t want to commit to all the travel etc at this stage. Pretty sure you can enter until quite late, though.

Floated the idea of Lanza to Mrs FT and the response was alarmingly non-negative 
This requires a reality check, IM’s a long way isn’t it? Not sure & will definitely not risk visiting the website like @Bob just yet.

I’ll save you some time, cheaper entries the sooner you press go

As Jeff says, it’s only going to get more expensive. Considering it is Ironman weekend and half term, prices for flights and accommodation are still reasonable for some reason.

Bollocks. First time Lanza has been half term for years and my mother in-law has a trip to Italy booked for her 70th…

There are flights from Italy to Lanza surely.

Tell your mother in law she can do IM Lanza next year instead 
The probabilityometer has swung from 0% to at least 50% in the FT household. There’s talk of staying on the next week and making it a family bash with the boys and their GFs

It’s the first weekend of my half term, so finish Friday / race Saturday. Not going to happen. TBF even if it was the middle weekend it still wouldn’t happen, but nice to dream. I am however still looking out for IM Leeds registration.
