Here's an interesting list that USA Triathlon have produced of the top prize money earning triathletes in 2016.
Wakefield Wheel
Debb Howcroft
Kildale Trail Run Recce
Bradley Woods Cyclocross
I have been talking about giving cyclocross a go for years. I have several friends who are evangelists for riding their bikes through the muddy wintry woods, and I have always thought it looked like fun. I confess I have been a little intimidated in the past, partly through lack of the correct equipment – I only had a (very heavy) mountain bike.
Ironman Barcelona
They say you get what you pay for. The Ironman experience is taxing, and not just on the wallet. The time and sweat that’s required to get to the start line is as draining as the price tag; but the experience is incomparable. The Ironman brand completely took over the town of Calella for the weekend, and we felt like VIPs at the party.
