About the Dextro Energy Triathlon - ITU World Championship Series:
The Dextro Energy Triathlon - ITU World Championship Series is a new global
triathlon series at the highest level of the sport. It represents an
innovative change by creating seven first-class World Championship events
and a Grand Final rather than a one-day world championship ev
ent. The world's best triathletes will compete head-to-head, featuring live
international television for the first time from every event. A record of
over USD 3 million (total prize money available for world championship and
world cup series) will be at stake in the battle to become triathlon's 2009
world champion. Also in conjunction with the high octane elite level racing
will be age group competitions that are open to registration through
