Zofingen to host ITU Powerman Long Distance Duathlon World Championships

Zofingen, Switzerland (August 29, 2012) -  For the second consecutive year and the fifth time in history, the ITU Powerman Long Distance Duathlon World Championships will be decided in the small and scenic Swiss town of Zofingen. Defending world champions Melanie Burke (NZL) and Joerie Vansteelant (BEL) will each return in attempts to repeat as the fastest duathletes in the world. The grueling race is set over a challenging 10km run, 150km bike, 30km run distance that includes a steep climb on the bike and hills at the beginning of each run lap.

While this is only the fifth time the ITU Long Distance Duathlon World Championships have been set in Zofingen, this year marks the 24th edition of the race in the Powerman series. The World Championship race made its debut on the ITU schedule in the Swiss town in 1997 and returned in 1998. In 2011, the event made its first appearance in Zofingen in 11 years for the seventh ITU Long Distance Duathlon World Championships.

2012 Ironman Louisville: The Sights & Sounds of the Swim

About 2500 triathletes are taking in the 2012 Ironman in Louisville, Kentucky.

That's a big race for an Ironman triathlon. But unlike most IM races Ironman Louisville is different in that it doesn't feature a mass swim start. Instead triathletes line up on a pier and jump into the Ohio River one at a time.

2012 was no exception with amateur and professional triathletes from around the country and around the world setting out on their 140.6 mile journey with just one jump into the warm river.

These are the sights and sound of the swim portion of the 2012 Ironman Louisville race.

The 2013 Ford C-Max and Toyota Prius V are both family hauling Hybrids. In fact they compete for the exact same buyer.

They both seat 5 people, they both get at least 40 MPG, they both have a gas engine and an electric motor, they both use their brakes to regenerate power back into the batteries that they both also have under and behind the rear seats.

So calling this is a mashup review might be a bit of stretch as both hybrids live and compete in the exact same market segment.

Check out this first drive Mashup review below from our sister blog TFLcar.com.
