Well the first major goal of 2007 has come and gone and I can reflect on a challenging time preparing for the race and and even tougher day out on the course. Tides, winds and a little sun all came to play on what was ultimately a very good day out for me.
Another big change in triathlon rules - the next ITU Long Distance World Championship, held in Lorient, France on 15th July, 2007 - will be comprised of much shorter distances: 3km swim + 80km bike and 20km run.
