Exactly..Now of we can get Casper Stornes to Copenhagen to try and qualify again he will have lots of time to recover from back to back weekends and get ready for a Norwegian TTT in Feb.

Won't any other races be for qualification in Oct of 2022?

Not sure that this particularly helps Sanders. He still has to Qualify Sunday to make the start list for Feb 5.

Alistair Brownlee back in play too?

I should have signed up for the Boston Marathon

They aren’t coming back to Australia. Crazy if they did.

It has been all good for training up here on the Sunny Coast for almost the entire Covid year and a half Last summer the place was chock full of tri-geek pros .We aren't bloody Melbourne up here :-)

So this is why they wouldn’t announce how they are giving slots for Fall 2021 races. They become Feb 22 qualifiers?

I don't think qualifying is the issue. Provided he qualifies, this gives Sanders ample time to recover and peak for WC in February.

I think we can pretty much agree that if the WC was in Oct, there's no way Sanders would be even remotely recovered enough to be competitive.

Does Blu train in Norway? Norwegian winters, yikes!

I'm not involved anymore because Sunday I turned down my slot in Finland because of, living in Europe, the travel restrictions from Europe to the USA. So when I heared about the February date I must confess I had a short jerk because I just turned down the slot.

However, besides the impossibility for many to train outside on the TT in winter I would add also possible frictions with the family at Chrismas and New Years Eve.

Because of the abovementioned problems and also because I have work-related obligations I do not know if I would have gone in February in the first place, even having paid the grand.

I will follow the discussion further with interest, because it is also far from secure whether the February date will hold even if it would now officially been confirmed by IM.

Norwegian winters. *swoon*

Blummenfelt would probably just go to one of the Canaries.

How are they getting in and out of the country? I thought borders were closed and even Australian citizens struggle to get into the country, not even talking about getting out...

I still have my doubts about Boston happening, too.

Athlete exemptions or exemptions for work just like Belinda Granger was able to commentate at the Challenge races in the USA last year and the same way pro triathletes will race 70.3 worlds and Kona.Just have to do the quarantine on return.

Thanks, wasn't aware of that.

I'm betting on 30th February.

Positives?

The 70.3 world's, which has been by far the most entertaining race distance in recent years, is suddenly looking even better. No one needs to hold back now - even better if IM can find a way of re-opening the entries for anyone who passed a slot to focus on an October Kona.

Announced on Jan's birthday, what a party pooper!

What will Jan do now?
70.3 world's?
Tri Battle v2?

Ohhhh……… I like!

In 2021 Blummenfelt left Norway in January and did not returned until after the olympics.
He will train where it is best.
Most likely not Norway :-)

kona used to be timed for the october full moon; in that case feb 26-27.
