More on the women’s triathlon wars heating up in Austin…

First, I’m trying to hook up a phone interview with former Danskin spokeswoman Sally Edwards sometime this week, so check back. Edwards is now working with the Trek Women’s Triathlon Series. If you have any specific questions for her, post them here and I’ll try to get some answers.

Danskin has announced that it is teaming with the SheROX Triathlon Series to present its triathlon series this year. The series will be called the Danskin SheROX Triathlon. The triathlon will consist of a half-mile swim, 12-mile bike and 3.1-mile run. The date of the Austin event is June 7 at Walter E. Long Park at Decker Lake.

Registration for the Danskin SheROX Austin opens today. Cost for individual entry is $85 until April 26 and $95 thereafter. Cost for relay team entry is $140 until April 26 and $165 thereafter. Go to www.danskinsheroxtri.com to register.

Training plans, course maps and cue sheets, hotel information and directions will be available soon.

Wish they had selected a different course venue - that’s two sprint tri’s in the same area within a couple of weeks of one another.

Would also be interesting to find out why Sally Edwards and Maggie Sullivan jumped over to the TREK series.

Because jumped over because it isn’t the danskin anymore! they sold it to sherox. SheRox didn’t want Sally!!!! So Sally is going her own way.
