Beyond the Ultimate Races - There’s a new set of multi-day stage races in a similar vein to the MdS and the Racing the Planet series. Beyond the Ultimate are organising a set of multi-stage events in the jungle (Peru), mountains (Colorado), desert (Namibia) and ice (Sweden). These will all be in 2013 onwards.
Iznik Ultra - Turkey April 15th. The course is described as a race that goes back 4500 years with un-spoilt villages, thousands of olive trees taking in trails around a lake.
Relay GB - run a leg and help them set a record to cover 1,923 miles
Highland Fling - The Highland Fling is a 53 mile multi terrain run along the tough West Highland Way from Milngavie to Tyndrum. Three European professional athletes are coming over to take part in the event - Emma Roca, Ludo Pommeret and Maud Combarieu. This is an exciting development for the race and it is going to be great to have some European athletes competing in one of the British Isles premier ultras.

Posts: 12Great show again Gents. It is noticeable that you guys are starting to gel as a presenting team. Keep it up.
I like the way you handled the French translation, after a few seconds I got completely used to it. Thank you.

Posts: 12Sorry I meant to say that you are a presenting team already! It is just that the rapport or the professionalism of the show has already gone from good to excellent in 5 shows!
