Ironman 70.3 in Mallorca or Austria?

Trying to decide between IRONMAN 70.3 Mallorca and IRONMAN 70.3 St. Pölten for my first 70.3 and I genuinely can’t decide.

St. Pölten seems like the rational choice: cheaper, easier logistics (train from Munich, no bike flight), calmer swim conditions (as I‘m a weak swimmer), and probably a slightly easier race overall.

Mallorca has always been a dream race for me though. The scenery looks incredible (most beautiful in Europe) and it feels like a much more memorable experience. The problem is that I’ll be coming out of an exchange semester that I’m paying for entirely myself, so money is already pretty tight. Mallorca would likely cost several hundred euros more.

As a student, it also feels even more meaningful to pull off something like this. Being able to look back years from now and say that I completed an IRONMAN 70.3 as a student while funding everything myself would be an incredible story and honestly a dream come true.

My head says Austria, my heart says Mallorca. I’ve spent a week thinking about it and still can’t make a decision.

Werkstudentenjob + kurzfristige Beschäftigung

Ich bin aktuell als werkstudent eingestellt und möchte Ende Juni eine kurzfristige Beschäftigung während der Semesterzeit aufnehmen, wo ich genau 7 Tage arbeite jeweils 10-11h. Das würde die Grenze von 20h/Woche als Werkstudent übersteigen.

Das wäre meine einzige kurzfristige Beschäftigung dieses Jahr, sprich es sind ausschließlich diese 7 Tage. Würde das steuerrechtlich gehen gleichzeitig neben der Werkstudentenstelle und während der vorlesungszeit (keine Semesterferien)?
