Jan 27th, 2010 by Christine Aberger
On 23rd January 2010 the 9th Winter Triathlon took place in Zell am See-Kaprun. For the first time the triathlon was a World Cup competition in the International Triathlon Union (ITU) as well as the Austrian country championship and the regional championship of the province of Salzburg.
In radiant sunshine about 100 participants competed against each other. The worthy winner with a time of 1:12:01.98 was the Italian Daniel Anton Ioli closely followed by Austrian Sigi Bauer (1:12:24.28). In the women’s valuation it was a narrow decision: the two Austrian triathletes Romana Slavinez and Klaudia Meisterhofer fought for the lead until the very last metres. In the end it was Romana Slavinez who carried victory home in 1:25:29.98 with a lead of merely 1.50 seconds on Klaudia Meisterhofer.
