by Sasha Manuel on February 10th, 2007

AUSTRIA - Athens Triathlon Olympic gold medalist Kate Allen of Austria has announced she has her sights set for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games to try and defend her gold medal. Allen, who has been absent from the world cup circuit since early 2005 choosing to focus on long-distance events, confirmed she will race the 2007 and 2008 BG Triathlon World Cup series in an attempt to qualify for the Beijing Games.

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! I’d like everyone to know I’ll be blogging about the upcoming Olympic Games in Beijing! Er, but you know already know that, right?

I was just wondering why athletes need to “announce” their upcoming involvement in the Olympics. Do they really need to do a press release and be interviewed? Hmmm. Curious thought, is all. Hehe.

Before I start listing down my theories (and stirring the pot), what do you think? ;)
