World renowned Olympic Triathlete Simon Whitfield discusses the advantages of ANT+

Professional triathlete and Olympic Gold Medallist, Simon Whitfield, loves how ANT+ just works!

One of the most medalled triathletes of all times, Simon has relentlessly pursued excellence in sport – and in life – for as long as he or anyone around him can remember.  “My goal was always to be the best in the world at something,” says Whitfield, who at 17 followed that goal to Australia, a triathlon mecca and year-round training ground.

Since then, he has achieved an enviable status in the world of sport (see list of accomplishments below).  In September 2012, we were honoured to have Simon join us as a Keynote Speaker at the ANT+ Alliance Symposium.  Here he shares some perspective on monitoring and ANT+.
