It’s hard to believe, but the chance for athletes to start earning points towards Olympic qualification is already here. In that spirit, many athletes traveled to Tongyeong, South Korea for a late-season ITU race. Australia’s Dan Wilson and Great Britain’s Jodie Swallow took the victories. See images of the race below.
