For the Elite women, wearing #1 is Emmie Charayron FRA. A top ten finish last weekend in Madrid, a bronze in Huelva and a season that closed with a bronze in Alanya and a silver in Agadir. Watch out for Portugal’s powerful young duo, Vera Vilaça and Gabriela Ribeiro. Both strong in the water and having gained valuable early season experience they can swim and bike hard. Ribeiro’s silver in Quarteira as a junior delighted the crowds and no doubt a home advantage will help her. Vilaça’s top ten finish in the elite race was also a clear signal that her training over the winter months has gone well.For the men, just under 60 athletes, from 15 nations will contest the title. As for the women’s race, there are several nations that are from outside the Mediterranean region.
The course is a one lap swim, followed by a three lap pretty flat bike course. The athletes close the race with a 2-lap 5k that is again pretty flat.
