  1. Don't know if anyone here ran yesterday, but having done my first Olympic distance this year I really want ot give a 1/2 IM a go next year and the UK one is the obvious choice for me.
    I remember reading that the UK one sold out within 2-3 days of the applications becoming availabe and I don't want to miss out. Generally speaking how soon after the event can you book for next year's event?

    I think I'm right in saying that IM UK is a new event and so there is no past experiecne on applications other than this year. I would guess they will run it again next year though, and surely IM must have a general rule about applications across all the events they put their name to.

    Not quite true, although it did fill quickly. There was probably a window of a month or two, but it
    did fill many months before the event.

    No - been going at least a few years now, although this year was the first at its new venue in the
    south. Rumour has it that it will be at the same venue next year.

  3. James,
    Thanks for the info, any idea when it will start opening applications for 2004 though!

  4. I just got back from finishing the HIMUK and would reccomend it. I think that next year they are
    looking at going full Iron distance but it is a great venue and worth doing. Last year it was full
    within about a month tops. "eddwalker" <[email hidden]> wrote in message
