What would it be like to have started your triathlon career at the age of 13 in the sun-trenched country of Australia and spent your entire life traveling around the world racing?
Every summer some of the best Australian triathletes come to Boulder to train and race here in the Mecca of triathlon. They come here because the weather is good, the company is better, and there is triathlon in the water.
