The sport of triathlon is in need of a rivalry and this was the perfect setting for that to be exercised.

The elites turned out in force with the last chance saloon for a win before many of them look to head overseas. Top of the tree in this event was Gareth Halverson and Jamie Huggett. The women were looking set for another Oldfield/Turner battle but this was about to be upset.

The tifosi (Italian fans) are mad for this event and when an Italian wins there is usually partying in the streets. This year saw a new name to add to this group.
