Ainhoa ​​Murua wins sixth place in Hamburg

This weekend, one of the major international Triathlon events was held in Hamburg, the ITU WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP DEXTRO ENERGY TRIATHLON, in which the Spaniards Gómez Noya and Ainhoa ​​Murúa managed to reach the finish line in sixth position.

In a highly contested event, in which, like the men's race, it was defined in the running segment, three Australian women, all of them named Emma, ​​managed to take the first three places on the podium.

With a temperature of 19.5 degrees, which made it necessary to use neoprene, the swimming was led by the Englishwoman Lucy Hall. During the cycling segment, two groups were clearly differentiated in which the Spanish Ainhoa ​​Murúa remained in the leading group and managed to leave together with the two Australians, Densham and Moffatt from T2 to begin the foot race.

Five kilometers from the finish line, the head of the race was redefined, from which the Chilean Barbara Riveros and Ainhoa ​​Murúa fell. In a disputed final sprint that was led by the Australian Emma Moffatt, 01:53:37, who achieved gold in the event as in 2009, the two Australians, Emma Jackson, 01:53:44, and Emma Snowsill, 01:53:44, arrived practically united in a final sprint, achieving silver and bronze in the Hamburg event. Murúa, 6, Damlaimcourt, 18, and Zuriñe Rodríguez, 46.

In this way, Paula Findlay, until today a favorite of the world triathlon series and who has not been able to compete in the event due to a hip injury, loses her first position in the series ranking, ceding it to the Chilean Bárbara Riveros who currently leads it. with 2497 points. Paula Findlay, second place with 2400 and Andrea Hewitt in third place with 2317.
