Amongst the Elite women there was much speculation as to whether the Italian team or the British team would dominate. They lined up, they took their mark and BANG!!!!
2006 UK Champion and 2006 World Long Course silver medalist, Catriona Morrison from Great Britain, who was here to better her silver medal from Newcastle in 2005, lead the first run, with a commanding 34:53 10k and then worked hard, hard, hard on the bike to show the World that she is the best and the fastest over all three legs. Her bike time was 2:30 ahead of chasing athlete Lucy Smith from Canada, who took silver in the Worlds exactly 10 years ago! The gutsy Scot posted a final solo run of 18:27 to win by a staggering 3:21.
Morrison crossed the finish line in a time of 2:04:18.
