Bermuda Olympian and multiple World Champion Flora Duffy has been named the Triathlon Best Female Runner of 2017 in WTS Rotterdam.
We’ve talked over and over about Duffy’s perfect race in the Rotterdam Grand Final, the one where she dominated and collected her second world title.
But one aspect of that race that helped launch her to the top of the podium was her run!
Yes she was the second person to exit the waters, yes she forced a bike breakaway with only two other women, but it was her run that CATAPULTED her to the finish line.
Exiting T2, Duffy still had company, but once her feet hit that pavement she was like the female version of the flash! Finishing with a 55-second advantage over the silver medalist - what?!
It’s so impressive giving the stakes of the race, Duffy really showed how strong she really is across the board that day.
