Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I quite like the look of the quarter distance which would be a challenge in itself and I like the 5 minute transition idea. Could be fun

Swim has always been my best bit and the bike my worst....it would play to my advantage for sure...

But it doesn't look right to me.....that bike distance is no real challenge and can be done without a huge amount of training or impact on the body....that's definitely not the case for a seven mile swim and definitely not for a marathon...

That swim will definitely preclude many current triathletes!

Got something to say?
