Ironman competitors deposit their bikes
While most cyclists (well, except for the cyclocrossers) are winding down their seasons, it's the most important time of the year for the triathlon crowd. Australia's Craig Alexander and Great Britain's Chrissie Wellington celebrated first-place titles at the 30th anniversary of the Ford Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, this past weekend.
VeloNews' Lennard Zinn was in Kona, working for our sister publication, Inside Triathlon. Among other things, Zinn took time to check out the equipment now being used to take on the 112-mile individual time trial, that just happens to come between a 2.4-mile swim and a 26.2-mile marathon run.
