Monday Morning Motivation: Island House Triathlon

The 2017 Island House Triathlon will take place at Highbourne Cay in the Bahamas on 17th – 18th November. It will be staged as three events over the course of two days, awarding $500,000 in prize money.

There are four British women taking part: Leanda Cave, Rachel Joyce, Holly Lawrence and Emma Pallant. Sadly, the only British male entrant, Tim Don, has had to withdraw following an accident a short while ago.

The format of this event is really interesting. There will be a super sprint time trial and an enduro race (run, swim, bike, run, swim, bike, run) on the first day. Then there’s a sprint pursuit on the second day.

I think it’ll be really inspiring to watch. Does anyone know if it will be possible to see it live in the UK?
