Show Me The Money

The updated 8% prize money rule at WTC events has impacted quite a few athletes this year, but nowhere more than at the recent Ironman 70.3 St. Croix where 9 men, but only 2 women, got paid. Several Pros weigh in on this topic.

A Fraser Cartmell update

Fraser Cartmell joined the Trek / K-Swiss team in 2010 and already had some nice performances for them. The Scot very narrowly missed the podium at the inaugural Abu Dhabi Triathlon, and just returned from 70.3 St. Croix.

Kemper and Cave escape from Alcatraz with wins

Hunter Kemper got away from his competitors late in the race to take the win at the 2010 Escape from Alcatraz triathlon. Leanda Cave battled Jenna Shoemaker all the way on her way to the title in the women's race.

70.3 St. Croix wins for Bozzone and Morrison

Terenzo Bozzone beat out defending champion Timothy O'Donnell to take the 2010 Ironman 70.3 St. Croix title. Catriona Morrison's 4:31:06 gave her the win and placed her in the top 10 of the Pro men.

McKenzie, Marangon in Busselton

Luke McKenzie added another feather to his cap by winning the 2010 Busselton Half Ironman with a very strong performance. Lisa Marangon was dominant in the women's race and held off Kate Bevilaqua by 5 minutes.

Weiss and Wurtele win St. George

Austrian Michael Weiss rode away from the field and closed out his day with a sub 3 hour run to win the inaugural Ironman St. George. Heather Wurtele took the women's race and has now two Ironman titles to her name.

Raelert, Dibens dominate Wildflower

Michael Raelert and Julie Dibens, 2009 Ironman 70.3 World Champions, continued their domination of the distance with record and near record performances at Wildflower.

The coming of Heather Jackson

Heather Jackson joined the newly formed Trek / K-Swiss team this year but this young Pro is still relatively unknown. We had a few words with her after her 2:15:17 bike split at the Ochsner Ironman 70.3 New Orleans.
