SwissVan Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Great result for Henri Schoeman at the opening race in Abu Dhabi yesterdayJust saw the last 2km of the run on BBC1 this afternoonFirst athlete to lead from start to finish at this level for a long time
SwissVan Posted March 3, 2018 Author Posted March 3, 2018 The 2018 World Triathlon Season has officially begun and its first-collected gold medal went to South Africa’s Henri Schoeman as he claimed victory at the 2018 ITU World Triathlon Abu Dhabi.Crossing the finish line to collect the tape after leading out of the swim, bike and run, the Abu Dhabi gold was only the second WTS win of Schoeman’s career. And despite the unusual desert rain that caused some slickness out on the bike course for many athletes, Schoeman managed to come out on top and become only the second man in WTS history to win the race after leading in all three disciplines from start to finish. https://www.triathlon.org/news/article/henri_schoeman_collects_first_gold_of_2018_wts_season_in_abu_dhabi
IceCreamMan Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 Made a mental note to watch this, then promptly forgot. .
WP12 Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 Really happy for Henri with that dominant performance. I would bet that those baseless doping violation allegations were a major motivation, both on race day and during preparation. Looking forward to watching him this season!
