Chrissie Wellington - You Ask the Questions
Don't miss your opportunity to help us interview the three-time Ironman World Champion - we're giving you the chance to ask the questions when we quiz Chrissie Wellington MBE in the pages of Triathlete's World
Chrissie Wellington stunned the triathlon world when she won the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii on her race debut in 2007. She had only turned pro six months earlier, in the same month as her 30th birthday. The 33-year-old has dominated long-distance triathlon ever since, adding two more World Championship titles and numerous other wins to her impressive CV.
Her career highlights include winning the Alpe D'Huez Long-Course Triathlon in 2007 and 2008, and her third World Championship title, when she smashed the 17-year-old course record and beat her nearest rival by more than 20 minutes.
Chrissie's dramatic story has inspired countless people to take up triathlon, so it's fitting that she was awarded an MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours' List for her outstanding achievements in the world of triathlon.

How important really is diet and the balance of carbs/protein/fat etc for optimum performance? Can I ask what a typical days worth of food and drink would look like for you when you are training. Are there any foods you swear by?
