After Paris-Roubaix training, INEOS Grenadiers rider Cameron Wurf, finishes 3rd in Ironman race

Cameron Wurf, who became famous for running half-marathon after having just finished the monument Paris-Roubaix, finished on podium of his first 2023 Ironman Lanzarote at Canary Islands, Spain.

As strange as it may have seemed, this unorthodox training approach seems to have paid off for the 39-year old Australian who is balancing the lifes of professional triathlete and that of a road cyclist with INEOS Grenadiers since 2020, when he signed for the British team.

Wurf is part of INEOS Grenadiers' multi-discipline programme, which includes Tom Pidcock and Pauline Ferrand-Prevost for MTB and CX or Ethan Hayter, Luke Plapp, Filippo Ganna and Elia Viviani for track events, with all of them belonging amongst the top atheletes in their respective disciplines.

Cameron Wurf is a true equivalent of multi-talented athlete, as he started of as rower, even representing Australia at 2004 Olympic Games, finishing 16th then. Wurf then jumped over to road cycling, eventually turning pro with Fuji-Servetto in 2009 until the Australian got tired of road cycling in 2014 and moved over to triathlon. He turned pro in the discipline in 2016 and has became owner of few bike course records since then.
