Hey Phil, this video came at a great time! I am going to sign up for Singapore since I happen to be in Thailand for work a week before the race! Followed your plan for my first tri ever in September and it went super well. Cheers

Hell of the West Goondiwindi is a great community managed 100 distance event in regional Queensland. Many Pro’s make this event an ‘ice breaker’ event for their season.

That’s me n my boys at 4:00 🍻.. just got entry to ICON next year in Italy 🏔️🥵

Great Video; regarding the Lakesman it is said, that it is a full distance, but I think it is a half distance Triathlon. BR, Christoph

The UK has some of the most brutal long distance races out there! I did Triathlon X in England in 2018 (sadly no longer running at the moment) which had the hardest bike route imaginable.

In 2022 I did the Celtman in Scotland in June, which has 10 degrees swim with jellyfish and a windy, exposed bike route.

Again in 2022, I did the Brutal Tri in Wales, with a tough bike route and then the marathon which was the hardest of the 3, having to summit Yr Wyddfa.

All 3 races are amazing in their own right and with the added challenge of the unpredictable UK weather, these races have to be experienced by any extreme triathlon enthusiast

Beastman in Bend, Oregon. Try it out while it is relatively low key, but very well organized event.

Have a look at Harda Suka in Poland. 5km swim, 234km bike around Tatra Mountains and 56km across Tatras with almost 5k elevation and >20h in total to complete;-)

[quentindescloux]

there could be the Altriman and the ALpsman, which are stunning

[powerkitemad]

The ROC England, Wales, Scotland or opt for the Trilogy! Swim, bike, mountain run, bike, trail run. AWESOME 😊

[ianmoore]

Celtman is better than Norseman, having done both. I would say all the xtri and extreme races compare favourably to the vast majority of the Ironman races, and there are now well over a hundred of them.

One of the best was Triathlon X in the lakes, which is now gone but may be making a comeback. Lot better route than the Lakesman and one of the hardest I’ve done.

[panzerveps]

Good luck signing up for Norseman now. The few spots are sold out each year.

Knysna Extreme Triathlon in South Africa

As someone who lives in the bay area, where there's seals, there's sharks

[wimvdputte]

Almost impossible to get into Challenge Roth.

[pro-fondeurs]

Title should include the word "extreme" or at least "long" since all the options are long distance triathlons and most of them harder than a normal tri. Or, maybe, the title could include the word "costly" or "hard to register for". That's ok. That was a video about long distance extreme costly and hard to register for triathlons. Now, am I the only one wishing for another video about "affordable and do-able special and great triathlons"?
