2006 Muskoka Chase
Quote | Reply
With all the debate about ITU vs Long Course athletes I got thinking about the 2006 Muskoka chase where Simon Whitfield beat Crowie by 2 minutes. Simon arguably one of the greatest ITU athletes and Crowie an Ironman 3x world champion.
How would Simon have done moving up to 70.3 or Full?

It's a good question and unresolved for a number of reasons. Short answer: up against Frodo, not a chance and at best top 10 or 20.

Post 2012 I followed his media to see what's up. There was one tweet about going long, but I think after the PTSD of all that olympic training he was a burnt biscuit. Grabbed a SUP and hasn't looked back :) Only so much punishment one can take.

I heard few stories about him from around here because he's from Victoria of course. Visited a friend's shop who builds guitars, hanging out with rock stars, etc.
