On the men’s side, Dave Dellow of Alaska Milk teamTBB Philippines delivered in third win in three starts.  After his breakthrough at IM Melbourne, and wins at IM Cairns and the Koh Samui Triathlon, Dave has shown that he is no fluke and is one of this year’s top triathletes.  This time racing at the 5150 or Olympic distance, Dave started the day with one of the fastest swims then set the pace on the bike with the leaders and finished a blazing 10K where he dropped all the other professional men with a surge at 5K to take the race.

David Dellow of Alaska teamTBB Philippines topped the race with an 18 minute swim, 1:07:37 bike, and a 35 minute run for a whopping 2:03:03 finish time followed closely by Csaba Kuttor of Hungary, who is just 24 seconds behind for second place. Ben Allen wrapped up the men’s pro elite division a full minute behind the leaders.

In the women’s pro division, multiple ironman champ Belinda Granger, bested the women’s field with a 2:22:35 finish time. Ali Fitch of Alaska teamTBB Philippines came in second 5 minutes behind with a 2:27:47 finish time.

Matty O’Halloran Alaska Milk teamTBB teammate of Dave also had a great race finishing in 4th.

Congrats Dave on your hat trick of wins!  And Congrats to both Matty and Ali on your amazing races!  It looks to be an amazing year for Alaska Milk teamTBB Philippines. We can’t wait to watch you all continue to dominate throughout the rest of 2012!
