Ironman Australia is the full distance Ironman race in early May (see my pre-race post), but it’s field is clearly overshadowed by the 70.3 in St. George on the same weekend: A lot of North American Pros interested in racing Kona and the 70.3 worlds in Mont Tremblant seem to be racing. A lot of Pros are trying to get the last few points required to get into safe territory (e.g. Angela Naeth), or to get a solid base for summer races (e.g. Heather Wurtele). It promises to be an exciting race!
I’m not usually posting for 70.3s – that’s why I can’t offer 70.3 ratings or predictions. However, St. George will probably be an important race for the KPR. Let me know if you would like to see more posts on 70.3 races!
