DI ASTWOOD
How many years have you been in Triathlon?	5.
Why did you start?	I got told that I just had to learn how to swim by a friend so I could do an Ironman race. So I did..... I'm still letting that friend boss me about! That aside I was sick of riding and running on my own!
What's your favourite race?	Quelle Challenge Roth (Germany) & IM Australia.
What's your favourite leg?	Right one. Seriously it's the run.
If you could win one event in the world what would it be?	Ironman New Zealand. Back on home turf.
What's your favourite drink?	Berry Smoothies. Cascade Premium. Not together.
What's your best race?	Ironman 2005 Forster. I couldn't stop smiling!
Is there something you eat which you shouldn't?	There aren't enough characters in this field to start the list......
Who is your idol?	My Auntie Dawn - she gets me over those painful moments during races.
What's the funniest thing that ever happened to you in a race?	I did one lap too few during the Mordialloc race last season! I realised my mistake once I got in the bike compound - duh! I decided that I didn't want to embarrass myself by running out of the compound with my bike, so I just stood around and chatted to the marshall. A blonde moment indeed!
If you could change anything in Triathlon what would it be?	Put a black line on the bottom of the swim leg.
If you could have any kind of car what would it be?	Subaru Outback.
