The power of the flame


For many people 2012 means one thing – the Olympics What challenge have you set yourself for this Olympic year? In the Wye Valley & Vale of Usk you’ll find an alternative pentathlon. Five disciplines. Star-studded. Energy-sapping. Downright silly. Each one’s different. You can go it alone in some of the events. For others you’ll need a team. For the real champions amongst you, the entire pentathlon can be completed during 2012. But, if you miss a few events, don’t worry – you won’t have to wait another four years for glory.
