Cheers, I'm off to uni and would rather focus on a fast half than having to worry about fitting in 100mile rides etc. Also to be honest I found the event itself quite boring, 6+ hours of cycling by yourself is a bit of a drag. I'll wait until I'm 23/4 before aiming for another full IM and then try and qualify for Kona, until then I'd like to target half's I think.
My uncle's done the full at Henley, was actually his slowest race yet, the bad weather took its toll. September is probably too late for me, I'd rather get it out of the way earlier in the year so I can relax a bit through the summer. Was looking at Ironman 70.3 Mallorca if I went abroad but thats really early, mid May, and looks like quite a tough field for qualifying in
