i see a failure building in this thread and that it is to be a pro female you have to race in 70.3 or longer. how about some ITU women chat it up in here? too bad good olympic distance series races get killed off in the USA easy. what about races like alcatraz, or out in europe? also why limit yourself just to tri and not single sport races? my wife is an amature and is winning cash at run races in mexico.... she wins 3000 pesos with an easy 1:30 while for me to get that much i need to run 1:10
