Ironman China

Ironman China takes place in Haikou, which is the capital of the Hainan Province, China's second largest island.

Set in the South China sea, boasting jade blue waters and white sandy beaches, there aren't many more stunning places in the world to undertake the ultimate endurance of a triathlon.

The event starts with a swim in the Nandu River, there are two 1900m loops to complete in the slow moving, mid 20's degree Celsius temperature river. After completing the first loop, participants will exit the river, run through a chute and complete the second loop.

The cycling and running parts of the triathlon have been moved to the east side of Haikou to avoid traffic generated by the port on the west side.

The cycling section involves completing two 90km loops on wide roads in excellent condition taking in interesting spectacles such as the mud, brick and rock buildings in one of the rural villages on route and through the scenic Crater Park.

Garmin Forerunner 305Just when you thought Garmin had cornered the market on powerful, affordable, and effective wrist-mounted GPS devices, here comes the Forerunner 305. The release of this device is a major achievement from a design and technology perspective. This isn't just marketing-speak; the Forerunner 305 is the most accurate, most reliable wrist-mounted performance and GPS tracking tool we've ever tested. Yes, it's that good. While no device this compact can do everything (yet), the 305 pushes the boundaries of what is possible from something strapped around your wrist. The 305 model includes wireless heartrate monitoring and it can also be connected to Garmin's wireless bicycle speed and cadence sensor. If you don't need these features, consider the lower-priced Forerunner 205.
