Hmm - Duathlon

Following Leon and Cath's kind suggestions earlier Giovanni has been able to find a couple of Duathlon's ( not biathlons as I previously called them) this year that are not too far from home.

Thruxton Mass Attack on the 23rd Oct
or
New Forest 30th Oct

Personally I fancy the Thruxton race as I believe its on the race course at Thruxton so nice and flat. The only downside is I'm still not able to train fro running but as the 2 runs are on 5K each I shouldn't need to train too hard for that. Need to spend time on the bike though 30k would take me about 1hr 10 at normally commuting pace. I'd like to get that under an hour. I'll have to look up a triathlete friend of mine for some tips.

Started training already though by cycling the 6 miles into work. I suppose the reluctance to line the pockets of the petrol companies and Gordon Brown had something to do with the decision as well.
