Indeed; all the more reason my vote went elsewhere.

Best performance of the year? I guess it has to be Lange.

Favorite performance of the year? Lionel

Breakthrough performer? Kanute / Charles

Triathlete of the year? Ryf / Duffy

Bike of the year? No award. Did anything meaningful happen?

Frustrating trend of the year? Disappearance of good races

Runner-up frustrating trend? Continued trend of canceling swims

Positive trend of the year? Rise of SwimRun as a complement to triathlon

There must be a category for this, somewhere

Michelle's video is definitely a contender for Hottest Triathlon Video of the Year, but she has serious competition from Lucy Charles and some other hot young tri girls. :)

Was was it for you? My vote is the 6:59:53 run at the Ultra 520K by Konoko Azumi.

Since the award is for Triathlon performance of the year, how did Konoko Azumi do in the swim and bike?


Please tell me you didn't think he ran 520km in under 7 hours.

I'll not comment on 'looks' video other than to say that the sport needs more personaility and Sanders / Vesterby / Keinle and others like them are a breathe of fresh air.

I was pretty happy with my 3rd place at the Verona Triterium Olympic Distance. I was almost 2 miles behind the winner but felt like i nailed it. Does that count?

Blummenfelt gets breakthrough of the year for me, great performances in the ITU, superleague and middle east 70.3.

Well, Jeremy Howard ran 6:24 at Ultraman World Champs along the Queen K highway...

My personal view on all round impressive tri performance would be Lucy Charles... with relatively little experience and lots of guts in very challenging conditions at Kona, to take second place is fantastic. Also to overtake most of the men in the swim! Kudos.

Also tough to argue with Lange's run, but I love the fact that Lucy chicked all those dudes.
