Ana Burgos, a Por Medalla En El Mundial De Triatlón COMUNICADO DE PRENSA Ana Burgos, a por medalla en el Mundial de Triatlón La deportista española busca su mejor resultado en un Campeonato del Mundo Gamagori (Japón), 8 de septiembre de 2005.- Ana Burgos afrontará el domingo 11 de septiembre a partir de las 3:45 (hora peninsular española) su enésimo reto del año 2005. Subcampeona de Europa de triatlón y duatlón, segunda en la Copa del Mundo de Hamburgo, tercera en la Copa del Mundo de Madrid y campeona de España de triatlón, Burgos luchará por colgarse otra medalla, pero esta vez será el más difícil todavía: nada más y nada menos que en el Campeonato del Mundo de Gamagori. Sería su mayor éxito desde que hace poco más de un año lograra diploma olímpico en los Juegos de Atenas. La deportista madrileña, que estará acompañada en la selección española por la guipuzcoana Ainhoa Murua (cuarta hace 20 días en el Europeo de Triatlón), espera poner la guinda a una temporada 2005 de ensueño. De hecho, pese a su brillante palmarés de este año, Ana Burgos ha orientado todo su calendario para llegar en plena forma a la cita de Gamagori. Y tiene ante sí un reto de gran envergadura, ya que su mejor resultado en un Mundial ha sido el octavo puesto logrado en Queenstown 2003. Ana, de 37 años, sabe que se encuentra en el mejor momento de su extensa carrera deportiva y que nada tendrá que envidiar ni física ni mentalmente al resto de sus principales rivales en Japón. “El nivel del Mundial es totalmente distinto a cualquier otra carrera”, manifestó Burgos nada más recoger su medalla de plata en el pasado Europeo. Y lo cierto es que no le falta razón. Porque en la línea de salida de los 1.500 metros de natación en el Océano Pacífico, 40 km de ciclismo y 10 km de carrera a pie estará un completísimo elenco de estrellas del triatlón. COMUNICADO DE PRENSA Cuatro campeonas del mundo intentarán revalidar título: las australianas Nicole Hackett (2000) y Emma Snowsill (2003), la británica Leanda Cave (2002) y la estadounidense Sheila Taormina (2004). También estará la norteamericana Susan Williams, medalla de bronce en los Juegos Olímpicos de Atenas 2004. Una de las grandes incógnitas de la competición será saber si ha llegado el momento del relevo generacional, encabezado por la australiana Annabel Luxford, campeona del mundo Sub-23 en 2004 y líder de la clasificación general de la Copa del Mundo 2005, y la portuguesa Vanessa Fernandes, campeona de Europa en 2004 y 2005. Ambas intentarán reeditar el recital ofrecido el pasado 5 de junio en la Copa del Mundo de Madrid, que dominaron de principio a fin. En Gamagori participarán 58 triatletas procedentes de 20 países (13 de Europa, 3 de América, 2 de Oceanía y 2 de Asia). Las principales ausencias del Mundial serán las de la austriaca Kate Allen, campeona olímpica en Atenas; la australiana Loretta Harrop, plata en los Juegos Olímpicos de 2004, y la estadounidense Siri Lindley, campeona del mundo en 2001. Y será el primer Campeonato del Mundo sin la suiza Brigitte McMahon, campeona olímpica en Sydney 2000, que anunció su retirada de la alta competición la pasada primavera. España busca su primera medalla femenina en un Mundial. Desde 1989, en que se disputó la primera edición del Campeonato del Mundo en Avignon, sus mejores resultados han sido un quinto (Catherine Davis, 1991) y un séptimo (Virginia Berasategui, 1997) puestos.

It is encouraging to see PHIL COLES AM some of the younger athletes beginning to make their mark PATRON in the sport. Brittany Dutton dominated the female triathlon TRIATHLON AUSTRALIA race at the Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing in August 2014, spearheading the Australian team’s performance with a convincing Gold Medal. Young Jake Birtwhistle is certainly an athlete to watch in the future. Making the move from Tasmania to the National Performance Centre in Wollongong under coach Jamie Turner obviously paid off for him with a silver medal in the ITU Junior World Championships in Edmonton last September.

    ORGANISATIONAL EXCELLENCE Key Objective “To build a sustainable and prosperous organisation by enabling innovation, collaboration and excellence in the development of its assets.” A “WHOLE OF SPORT” APPROACH We continue to make steady progress on our aim of being a completely unified sport and remain committed to increasing organisational efficiency and enhancing our member services by continuing to evolve the national operating model. The “whole of sport” concept of national coordination supported by local delivery was further bedded down during the year, with several combined projects shared by national and state staff members. Since beginning the journey towards unification in February 2012, we have taken a “bottom up” approach by focussing on the operational aspects of our work, and demonstrating behaviours which enable the sport to flourish though better delivery of services to our members and the community. Since we began, we have: • Standardised our membership arrangements and worked with partners ActiveNetwork on building a new membership database • Established and refined a “whole of sport” budget and financial model which has achieved greater consistency and financial stability across the national and state associations • Moved all our operations to consistent IT systems including Office 365 and Xero Accounting platforms • Considered the most effective staffing structure and arrangements for a unified organisation • Developed our “whole of sport” Strategic Plan and the Operational Plans that underpin achievement of the Strategic Plan • Commenced implementation of the “whole of sport” Operational Plans In parallel the State Triathlon and Territory Association (STTA) Presidents have continued to progress thinking on the governance aspects of a more unified sport.
