Lanza = wind, hills, heat
Nice = alpine climb, heat.
Wind is not usual (although possible).

Bolton = wind, hills, rain, crappy roads, cold, people with no teeth.

Bolton is (was) the hardest Ironman in the world.

I just googled. Malaysia seems up there. Don't think I know anyone who's done it. Unless Juder did back in the day?

Tenby = Lanza, approx
Both were harder than the 'old' Bolton (my 2013, 2015 editions), but easier than the 2023 Bolton on a v different bike course.
We both know that one day Ironman will bow to the inevitable and run an Ironman out of Dorney. On a Wednesday night, at the wrong end of the lake....

Each lap is about 4.5, IIRC.
