Nicola Spirig is probably the greatest female triathlete. This Swiss athlete has become a reference model of this event in the last few years, thanks to her determination, dedication and victories. And this BH-sponsored athlete, born in 1982, is not only a consummate triathlete, she also happens to have a Law Degree. In July 2010, she held on to her title of European Triathlon Champion, which she had won in 2009, and she did it as always, with an incredible demonstration of strength in the last meters of the race. The people of Madrid also watched as she won the third leg of the Dextro Energy ITU World Championship Series. Other important victories in her brilliant career include her 1st place in the 2009 Alpes d'Huez Triathlon and the 2008 Monaco Ironman 70.3. Spirig and her BH GC are now setting their sights on the 2012 London Olympic Games.
