Eton SuperSprint (swim 400m, bike 20km, run 5km)
Sunday, May 15th
Set at Eton rowing lake near Windsor. Swim in a rowing lake, cycle and run around the rowing lake. Flat cycle/ run, a bit monotonous doing laps of the rowing lake, but a good way to kick-off the season.

The Boskman (2.6km, 120km, 22km)
Sunday, June 5th
Distance roughly half-ironman, set in the New Forest, Hampshire, about 2hr train southwest of London. Should be a good test for race nutrition and great for scenery. Natsuko and I are turning it into a long weekend. I'll go out on Friday for registration, Saturday racking bikes, Sunday race and Natsuko will join. We'll spend Monday and Tuesday wandering the forest and hopefully taking in some sun.
