Home / Britain’s Joel Jameson racing Challenge Wanaka next month

Jameson, whose career highlights include victory at the Outlaw (2011) and bronze at Challenge Henley (2013), will be facing competition from defending champion Dylan McNeice (NZL), Jose Jeuland (FRA) who placed third at Challenge Vichy 2014, and Braden Currie (NZL) making his long-course debut.

In the women’s pro field, Gina Crawford (NZL) returns for a crack at her sixth Wanaka win, and is joined on the start line by three American athletes, Kristin Lemos, Charisa Wernick and Katya Meyers, all Wanaka first timers.

Challenge Wanaka is New Zealand’s largest triathlon festival and starts with a 3.8km swim in the crystal clear waters of the South Island’s Lake Wanaka (wetsuit compulsory), followed by a two-lap 180km bike along two alpine lakes in the Southern Lakes region, finishing with a 42.km run along the Clutha River to finish in Albert Town.

Entries to Challenge Wanaka 2015 remain open until 25 January 2015 at www.challenge-wanaka.com.
