UPDATE - 16 February

A couple of things I missed off my previous race update.  Firstly, thanks to Kevin who entered the race to keep me company but was unfortunately struck down by man-flu like illness so was unable to compete.  Secondly, when checking the results I found that I'd finished the race with a fellow member of Windrush Tri Club.  I don't know him (as so far haven't gone to any training sessions this year) but on "Googling" found that he'd been running for a testicular cancer charity so check out his awesome website .....  http://www.bustinyourballs.org/


Also have just confirmed another three events.


6 Mar Steyning Stinger Half Marathon http://www.steyningac.co.uk/the-stinger/  
My first ever half marathon and the 'stinger' in the name refers to the fact that its cross-country and involves a lot of hills - particularly near the end!


1 May Lingfield Gallop http://www.galloprace.co.uk/ 
"The Gallop 10K is a held over the flat on traffic-free roads, grass and woodland paths of this idyllic course. Only 15 mins from junction 6 of the M25, Lingfield is one of the countries prettiest horse racing courses." 

22 May Strathclyde Triathlon
 http://www.britishtriathlonsuperseries.com/default.aspx?id=695  This is part of the super series organised by the British Triathlon federation which attracts most of the top professional triathletes in this country.  The other one's I'm doing are Blenheim, Windsor and London - who knows, you may even catch a glimpse of me as Channel 4 usually covers the series. 
Will be finding some more soon - probably a couple of orienteering ones towards the end of March and then there are the long weekends of Easter and a society wedding of some description at the end of April.  Will keep you informed.
