By the way, gerpster, LCW seem reasonably confident it'll actually go ahead in September (they've just sent out the gpx route files), so perhaps it can go in the side bar

18 - 20 September 2020

Stunningly my 24hour mtb race in July may happen, to be fair they are pretty damn isolated affairs :¬)

How is LCW in BeNeLux still LCW? We need Dougal to explain. He knows all about this. Well George does anyway :)

It's organised by the LCW people (who I think are a subdivision of the ironperson people?).

What annoys me is how on earth they can get away with calling it LCW Holland Beesel when it's in neither of those places... I's not like non dutch folk will be more familiar with Beesel than Reuver, surely?

There is now an LCW Belgium that is actually in Belgium, at least. And it's the week after the new dates for Limburg. I'm not thinking about doing the longer swim and shorter runs and bikes there, honest... (I've actually asked them if I can switch wholesale from to Belgium as the new Limburg dates clash with and event Sam wanted to do. But if they say no I might sign up for some extra Belgium ones for the bling)

LCW = Long Course Weekend. Basically an Ironman length event run over 3 days.

So you can run one wherever you want, although Tenby Pembrokeshire is both the original and best version which is now being exported.

I’m not going to steal Dougal’s thunder but that’s straightforward compared to his tale.
