Weekend decision

Another one of those hard calls for the weekend. Don´t know what to do / race this weekend. There is a Xterra near by, that I always wanted to do. And the 50 miler, that would be another fantastic challenge and test for my body/mind/character. Don´t know yet? --- Kjell

Title story ;)

Title story, after my win last sunday here in CDA: CDA Press --- Kjell

What I´m doing

"The other side to this is that the fields in WTC races may be compromised due to this. Those athletes who may not be at the top of the field will look to races that are not attended by the stars of the sport. This will in turn keep fields across the world to only a handful of professionals. For the sports elite it makes no difference as they will generally finish where they need to be in order to get paid. But for the WTC brand it may have an impact if they cannot secure a raft of big names. In saying that the 70.3 races this season have been well attended. The spin off benefit is that independent races like the Challenge Series and other events such as Wildflower will see plenty show up because they are not aligned so the 8% rule is out the window."
