Tempting ... tempting ... I'm trying to talk the missus into a few days away, can't bring the kids though cos it's school time. Wanted to do Wales 2013 for my first, but that's still 16 months away. Although I like the idea of the whole family being there...
Jay, I think you're right, it might take a couple of months. Some folk might be waiting a bit to sign up for financial reasons, though, so I hope it isn't sold out by the time they can pay. It is difficult to know how quick these things sell out sometimes. Maybe the recession will delay the sell out a bit!
Having just read holg's semi-race report I'm not so sure about Lazna; hills & hard work I can deal with but this little black duck does not cope very well with heat so might be a UK based event for me to pop my IM cherry!

I read somewhere it took four months to sell out last year (maybe Barlos said that??)
and you believe anything Barlos says ?????
Good point Dave - but I've just read back and checked ...it was actually M..eldy that said that...... so it may have sold out already!!
Well we know Meldy is getting on (more brave pills this morning), so between th epair of them, You might as well take up knitting
Really tempted to come to this as supporter/sherpa!!
Oh braver man than I!!
But perhaps a new book in there somewhere - Can't Knit, Can't Crochet, Can't Sew!!
Won't be signing up straight away, more likely end of the month
No rush on this one although wiill be keeping an eye on the numbers !

Yeah shas79 it's the heat that worries me. And in Wales there'd be real ale for celebrating, too. Big concern, that.
I hope not as I don't have one!!
I've got a cycling proficiency badge somewhere - will that do?
According to the website when we rock up at registration we need a tri license! But it's jus something you buy.
Also entries open at midday local time. In case anyone was wondering... ? !
Your dad went and you didnt?! Think I might have peeked at the registration form by thursday!
Have you seen the other thread on the alternative Pirate outing for 2013 - might be worth waiting to see what's decided???
so has anyone been brave and pressed the button yet .. or has Holgs race report scared the bejeesus out of all of us ??
