August Photo Contest Winner, Craig T. Normand writes "I bought a Felt in June and by July was riding along the routes of the Tour de France, to include Alpe d'Huez. This photo was taken near Stage 6 when I happened across the Garmin Chipotle team mechanic's set up off the Tour route in the team's stop for the night. The mechanic and I spoke for several minutes in French and then I asked my friend to take a picture, to which the mechanic replied, 'No worries, you can speak English' (he turned out to be from New Zealand). So, here is a photo of me by the team car."

Austin, Texas, one of the nation's triathlon hotbeds, will now host its own Ironman 70.3 event - the Longhorn Ironman 70.3 Austin on Sunday, October 5, 2008.  The event, the final addition to the 2008 series, will serve as the first official qualifier for the 2009 Half Ironman World Championship taking place on November 14 in Clearwater, Florida. 

Last year, Austin's Endorfun Sports presented the city's first long-distance triathlon as part of the Longhorn Triathlon Festival.  Keith Jordan, Endorfun Sports owner and producer of the popular Timberman 70.3 in New Hampshire, comments, "With the official Ironman 70.3 designation, we expect the race to draw over 2,000 athletes from around the globe. We have already laid the groundwork with a very successful race in 2007, drawing more than 900 athletes from 38 states in addition to Mexico, Canada and Great Britain.  This race will have the spirit of Austin and put our city on the world map as a destination and triathlon mecca."
