Dave Dellow

On the weekend before Valentines' Day, Dave Dellow loves the challenge of facing a strong field on a big stage at the Supersprint 2XU Falls Creek Triathlon that will serve as the Australian Long course championships. The race in Falls Creek Victoria will be a tough day starting with a 2K swim in the immaculate Rocky Valley Lake followed by an 80K ride over a three lap course of the Bogong High Plains road and 20K run on the beautiful Aqueduct running trail. The race will be very challenging and run up at altitude in Falls Creek.

This will benefit Dave as he is a hard nut and has been living and training in Thredbo for the last six weeks. Dave is very excited to test his fitness after a great training camp, the same camp that prepared Aaron for his victory in Wanaka.

Dave is very excited for his first race of 2012. After finishing 2011 with a big win at the Noosa Triathlon, Dave is excited to see how he has progressed over the winter and will be chasing the win. The Australian Long Course Championships will be a great way to start his 2012 seaon and build his momentum for a great 2012 season. Dave will use this race as a key step on his road to Ironman Melbourne in late March. He will race hard from the gun as always and go after the strong field of Australian and international athletes. Follwing this event, Dave plans to continue his racing domination with Ironman Melbourne with the goal of collecting points to race in Hawaii this October.

Good luck Dave! Get after it and bring home a podium for teamTBB!
