'I am concentrating on off-roading and ultras this year (Excalibur Marathon – 31st March, Sandstone Trail 33m – 12th May and Lakeland 50 – 28/9th July) before dabbling in the world of tri with my first half-IM in September (Vitruvian).'
God help you
Seriously, well done, you will have a very experienced mentor !!

Holy carp....
see, that even rhymes - it was obviously meant to be
Whoop whoop, a Mundanie wins
Congrats Frodo - without giving too much away, I know that last year was pretty carp for you at times, so I'm really pleased for you that you're beginning this year on such a positive note.
Any news on the dog-vote?
Am all and and and and a little
PS Jeepers, I think the dog-vote is a dead comp but, technically, Bear wins this with me as my training partner
I think I may be overdosing on smileys...
many congrats Frodo, , a place well deserved !!
was just about to post about how I would be lurking somewhat on this thread, but then did a refresh on the main page ... so now looking forward to plenty of inter-thread encouragment (and no this doesn't mean I've signed up to the Sandstone Trail ........ yet !!! )
Excellent Frodo, good luck!
I suspect my mentor is out enjoying his birthday...
Little did I realise just how badly that could come back to bite me on the ass
Just for that you will all suffer together......
As guessed I was out on the wine tonight but will drop you a mail tomorrow Frodo to get some info together to make sure we are singing off the same hymn sheet.....
You just dont realise how lucky you are
Well done Frodo on being picked, I'll try and follow this thread as well as mine. I cant believe how lucky we are! It's so exciting.
Lucky is not the word I would use..... unless of course you have ear plugs.
I have done the normal "fill in this Questionnaire" mail to Frodo so once I get a bit of a clue where I am starting from we will be off and running hopefully literally as well as metaphorically. I am going to try to move all the peole from last years sub 4 onto here so we dont all get confused... not difficult at my age.
Anyone else coming to play on here lets have a few details about starting points and aspirations etc and we can all play nicely together
Me I am douing VLM this year and looking for something starting with 3
My head is fine.... I is an affletete and only had a few glasses of red honest.....
