don't forget that there needs to be at least 2 fat lads doing the whole lot as they need to do the FB & Holgs Memorial Fat Bastard Challenge - loser buys the other a load of donuts
I'm trying my damn best to chow through the pile that Holgs sent me - with the help of others!!
Hi, Been lurking on the IMUK/Outlaw 2010 threads trying to decide which one to do next year and oscillating wildly and indecisively between the two. Have now decided to do the Outlaw in 2011. Almost definitely. PS It's my first long distance tri so I'll be asking lots of daft questions.
I'll try and come to support again I think ,as i'll be Regensburgering it two weeks later, and i'm not really up to doing a relay too. Too fat and unfit for that kind on nonsense Do I still qualify for donuts though?

Dont do IMUK is my opinion, well thats unless you want to pay IM rates for whay in my opinion is a 3rd rate IM event, with an organisation prone to sue/ban competitors. Oulaw all the way, a brilliant event.
Hi - thanks for the welcome! I had kinda settled on Outlaw anyway as the logistics seem much more straightforward than IMUK (I've had bad experiences with stuff getting lost in split transitions and had visions of me wandering around Bolton at midnight looking for my bike)and this has been confirmed by the race reports I've read, Outlaw seems to come out top. Just need to get off the sofa and start doing some trampolining now, I guess.
I will be doing either Outlaw or IMUK the choice is dependant on when Miss JP goes to Ghana, She is going as a volunteer to build a school with Cheshire Fire cadets and is due to go last week of July/first week of August and until I know which weekend I cant commit to a race.
If entries are selling out fast I might have to enter both. could then be fun if they change the dates and she goes midweek.

As it's 2 weeks before Regensburg I will defo be supporting but could perhaps be talked into doing a swim for a relay team if anyone needs one? I am not that fast but hope to be a bit faster by next year!

SA & Jordy will be supporting, but SA could be talked into being part of a relay but not the swim

I reckon we could fnid a few fat bastards by this time next year!

I'll start off by letting you know trampolining is not a core part of IM training unless you are carl
So come on then who wants to join Shuffle B & myself in one of the relay teams!!
Swim: Shuffle B
Bike: Little Sister
Run: ???????
No thanks

"No, no, Mr Tri UK / IMUK, never heard of Barley - nope, not at all"
I'm very tempted, just going to check I get on ok at the vit, and get a date for probably foot surgery
There's at least two others on sheffield thread who are keen
