Ironman Triathlon World Championship considers switch

ChrissieWellingtonBritain’s three-time ironman world champion Chrissie Wellington is set to try out road race cycling in time for the London 2012 Olympics.

The 32-year-old Triathlete from Norfolk who is the world record holder for ironman-distance triathlon races is keen on a new challenge, but insists her main priority remains a fourth world crown.

Wellington said: “I love triathlon and the challenges it affords me. Having said that I would be foolish not to consider trying other things.”

Wellington is the current and three-time Ironman Triathlon World Champion, having won the World Championship consecutively in 2007, 2008 and 2009. She is noted for having won the World Championship less than a year after turning professional, an achievement which has been described as “a remarkable feat, deemed to be a near impossible task for any athlete racing as a rookie at their first Ironman World Championships.”

She is also the first British athlete to hold the Ironman Triathlon World Championship, and remains undefeated over the Ironman distance.
