안녕하세요. 철인고양이 입니다.
얼마전 외국 홈피에 올라온 내용입니다.
명실상부한 3종경기에 있어서는 위대하다고 평가받을만큼 대단한 15명 전, 현 선수들 입니다.
Inside Triathlon magazine announces its picks for the 15 greatest male triathletes of all time.
Craig Alexander
(크리스 맥코멕과 함께 현 최강자입니다. 2008,2009 하와이 아이언맨 월드 챔피언)
One of the sport’s greatest runners, Alexander is one of only four men who has won consecutive titles at Kona.
Mark Allen
(이분은 제가 알기론 아이언맨 레이스중 콜라를 먹었다는 분이죠.
그래서 지금 아언맨 경기중 콜라가 보급되는지도..^^)
The six-time Ironman world champion is the inspiration behind so many Ironman finishes and careers.
Greg Bennett
Perhaps the most incredible feat that Bennett ever accomplished in his long (and ongoing) career was winning all five Life Time Fitness Grand Slam series events in 2007, earning him the richest triathlon purse in history.
Alistair Brownlee
Although only 22, the 2009 world champion and favorite for gold in London has already proven himself worthy of this list.
Hamish Carter
Olympic gold. ITU overall world cup gold. Xterra world champs gold. Hands down one of the greatest.
Bevan Docherty
One of the most consistent racers in the sport, Docherty and Simon Whitfield own almost half of the Olympic triathlon medals in existence.
Javier Gomez
Called the “Michael Jordan” of triathlon by many, Gomez and Alistair Brownlee have raised the bar in ITU triathlon to a level that’s never before been seen.
Craig Walton
You cannot have a conversation about the greatest of all time without mentioning Walton, whose blistering swim/bike combo will go down in history.
Greg Welch
A prolific racer and winner in his career, Welch sparked what is now an Australian tradition of destroying the competition in Kona.
Conrad Stoltz
(유일한 엑스테라(오프로드 트라이애슬런) 선수인듯 보여집니다.)
Known as “The Caveman,” the two-time Olympian is the only man with four Xterra world titles.
Simon Lessing
A four-time ITU world champion, a long-course world champion, an Olympian, a four-time French Iron Tour champion—the list goes on.
Chris McCormack
(현재 2010 하와이 월드 챔피언, 크렉 알렉선더와 올해는 어찌될런지..)
Although his accomplishments are too many to count, his epic win at Kona last year cements his status as one of the greatest of all time.
Scott Molina
One of the “Big Four,” Molina won 104 professional races in his career, including an Ironman world title.
Simon Whitfield
The sport’s first gold medalist, in Athens, and a few seconds away from doing it again, eight years later, in Beijing.
Dave Scott
He’s Dave “The Man” Scott. Enough said.
