LONDON (Reuters) - Tokyo Olympic triathlon champion Kristian Blummenfelt says that the flat Paris course means it might take a sub-29 minute 10km run to take gold in next year's Games and the Norwegian says he is planning his build up to produce just that.
Blummenfelt finished ninth in the test event on the Paris course in August, won by Britain's 2021 Olympic silver medallist Alex Yee, who clocked a blistering 29.00 minutes.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
