Technically Iron-woman, but the GB year of sporting achievement just keeps on giving.

Leanda Cave has won the women's title, taking over from the incredible Chrissie Wellington.

She has now won the world title at Olympic, half-ironman and ironman. A first I think and not bad going for an asthmatic. Chapeau!

asthmatic

A significant advantage, so much so that some countires have got very strict about the AUTs/TUVs they accept. Others less so.

A bit churlish!

Do you actually have any knowledge of her personal circumstances to make such a comment?

I'm guessing he's referring to the 90%* of pro cyclists who registered as asthmatic.

*Totally fictitious value made up by me.
