Ironman Weymouth 70.3 – my A race for 2016

Woohoo! I’ve now entered my final A race for 2016 (with the other two being Southampton Half Marathon in April and Long Course Weekend in July). I’ve entered Ironman Weymouth 70.3.

However, this wasn’t because I’d been repeatedly nagged to enter more Ironman events by Ironman:

There are a lot of other events that I’d like to try in 2016, but as usual, I need to try to be at least a bit restrained and not enter everything!!!

I’m really excited about doing Ironman Weymouth 70.3 for several reasons:

• I loved doing Weymouth Half as my first half iron distance race in 2014
• It’s not too far from where I live
• It has great crowd support
• I’m hoping it will be good preparation for doing Ironman Weymouth in 2016

Have you planned your A races for next season yet? What do you want to enter and why?
