Gómez Noya, at the top of the world series in Hamburg

Today 20 Saturday is held in Hamburg -6 of the afternoon men's race- one of the great dates of the world triathlon, since it has been from 2002, scoring either the World Cup, the World Series and even the World Championship in 2007.

There he will be Javier Gómez Noya willing to defend the leadership in the general against a luxury squad in which the brothers stand out Brownlee, the winner in 2012 Richard Murray and Spanish Mario Mola, 2º in the general circuit. A city in which Javier has competed 5 times, achieving the victory in the edition of 2010.  

As in 2012 it will be on the Sprint Distance (750m swimming, 20km cycling, 5 on foot, that is to say half of the Olympic), which gives it more emotion if there is not a moment of relaxation. After the appointment of Kitzbuhel two weeks ago in which he did not have a good result and competed ballasted by a fall in bike the previous week, the Galician has trained at home recovering the usual sensations: "I am very motivated to be a city of good memories and for the tremendous level of participation there will be. I have done quality walking sessions and I feel ready to go to the top, which is how it is going to be in the last phase, being just 5 kilometers ".

Having participated in all the championship events (with 1º, 2º, 2º, 8º and 13º), Gómez Noya has to discard the worst results since they only score the best 4 plus that of the London final in September. In Austria when 13º was not added and to do it on Saturday it has to be better than the 8º of San Diego.
