Estamos seguros que todos saben que es el triatlon, pero de cualquier manera este es una interesante manera de explicarlo, como parte de los promocionales de los Juegos Olimpicos en Londres 2012.
Se daran cuenta que el video dice que la distancia en la bici es de 43km y aunque todos sabemos que la distancia oficial es de 40km, en Londres se cambio para lograr que la ruta pasara en frente del palacio de Buckingham.
Simon Whitfield won the 1st ever Olympic triathlon in Sydney 2000. Now that Canada has announced he is officially Simon is part of the 2012 London Olympic team is fair to show the video of his sprint for victory in Sydney 2000. *The video looks like its from the 80’s….sorry
By the way… Simon will be attending his 4th Olympic games.
Sydney 2000 = Gold / Athens 2004 = 11th / Beijing 2008 = Silver / London 2012 = ???
There are 8 Russians in the top 50 ranking of the ITU and they are now officially targeting the bronze medal in the London 2012 Olympics. This video features Alexander Bryukhankov, Russia’s best hope for an olympic medal in London.
