Triathlon is shaping up to be one of the marquee events at this year’s Olympics in London. Not only is the strong field of women and men featuring home nation favourites – Helen Jenkins, Alistair and Jonathan Brownlee – but the course is one of the few venues that is widely open to the public.
With seven laps of the bike segment passing in front of Buckingham Palace, it is sure to create a buzz with the fans and media alike.
