The team at XTERRA wanted to offer you, Guardian Running blog readers, a 10% off code to enter the events on 23/24 August 2014. Since I have entered, I'm clearly on a mission to make you all suffer alongside me. In case you know nothing about the event, it's an off-road triathlon series in Cranleigh, Surrey – in the gorgeous surroundings of the Vachery Estate (disclaimer: you may not be at your most scenery-appreciative when competing in the event).
The event is open to all but also has an elite field competing – for victory, of course, but also the 40 qualifying slots up for the XTERRA world champs in Hawaii. Tough gig, eh?
The different events comprise:
• England Championship Triathlon (1.5km swim, 30km bike, 10km run)
• Sprint Triathlon (750m swim, 15km bike, 5km run)
• Super Sprint Women's Only Wave (400m swim, 10km bike, 3km run)
• 1,500m Big Swim
• 3,000m H2Open Water Big Swim Series
There's also live music, a food festival, an expo and camping available. For more information visit xterra-england.co.uk. Please use the promo code GUARDIAN10 for 10% off any of the races.
