JANUARY 2015
Happy New Year and welcome to the new T-Series newsletter.
2014 saw the launch of our T-Series races with the T60 Night Race in May and T184 Endurance Race in August.
2015 promises to be another exciting year for us as we look to develop our existing races and also add a new race to the calendar with the launch of the T100 Unsupported Race which bridges the distance between the T60 & T184 events.
We look forward to welcoming back previous entrants and hope to encourage some new people to our events this year.
In addition, we have now relaunched the T-Series website with a new design which you can find at www.tseriesracing.com
Furthermore, we have launched a new twitter account @tseriesracing to help keep you up to date with all the T-Series news.

We have also recruited some additional experience to help develop the T-Series events with Paul Ali joining the T-Series team. Paul brings a wealth of ultramarathon running experience with him as well as his media and design experience from creating and editing Ultra Tales.
For those people who are considering running our events then may we remind you of the T1 Workshop which is scheduled for Saturday 14th March. The workshop is designed to help prepare entrants for each of our events and was well received last year and a great opportunity to meet other T-Series competitors.
Finally, thanks to our race partner Beyond the Ultimate we have a fantastic prize for the winner of the 2015 T184 Endurance Race which you can read about further on.
