The word on the street is there will be an Ironman event in Wales next year! Apparently the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC) who own the Ironman brand are going to make an announcement next week about a full distance Ironman event to held in Tenby, west Wales in September next year.
This is massive news and could be a huge money spinner for the west Wales economy, which is historically dependent on tourism for its income. If this rumour is true it will make for an amazing race, the scenery in that part of Wales is truly breathtaking, however I'm not sure it will be a fast race due to the undulating countryside around Tenby.
Could this race tempt me out of Ironman retirement, I'm not sure? But you never know! Watch this space.......
