ibiza ultra team 2012Spring in Ibiza is perfect for sporting activities and many organised events take place on and around the island in this season. Here's one that will push athletes to the limit and takes place on 28th April, a long weekend on the island.

It's Ibiza Ultra Team 2012 and takes the form of a triathlon featuring trail running, mountain biking and swimming and will cover a total distance of around 180 kilometres. Athletes have the choice of the full or middle distances in each of the events and take place as follows: trail running - San Antonio to Ibiza, Mountain Biking – Santa Eulalia to Ibiza, Swimming – A circuit of Formentera.

Teams or individuals can enter the competition and subscriptions open tomorrow, 20th January – just click onto the Ultra Team Website for information if you fancy a leisurely jog round Ibiza's stunning spring countryside and coves.

Just take a look at this video to get an idea of what it's like!

I'm gasping for air just listening to it!
