Triathlete Magazine

In the November issue, which came out in early October, there was a profile on the pro women's race written by me.

Page 79. `SPEED the Primary Factor In Capturing the Women's Title'

I put Chrissie as the probable winner based on her performances during the past year, and also because the race was hers to dictate. But I didn't anticipate the dominance she displayed on the day. Wow.

I had highlighted four of the top 10 athletes in my preview. Sam McGlone, who I expected to battle for the win, withdrew because of an injury. Kate Major wasn't a force this year, also the result of a lingering injury. Belinda Granger led for a period of time on the bike but it left her flat for the run.

A superb race.
