JIXIAN, TIANJIN - World Triathlon Corporation (WTC) announced today that the
2011 Ironman China and Ironman 70.3 China races, set to take place on May
29 in Jixian, Tianjin, have been cancelled. After the cancellation of the
swim portion of the race earlier in the week and the resulting change to a
bike-run format, WTC was informed that Tianjin Sports Bureau (TSB) could not
obtain the required sanctions from the China Triathlon Sports Association (
CTSA) to conduct the event.
"Events in China require an appropriate sports body to act as the co-
organizer," said Murphy Reinschreiber, managing director of the Asia Pacific
region for WTC. "While we have had nothing but positive experiences in
working with China's sports authorities in the past, TSB simply failed to
provide all of the documentation necessary for CTSA to process the sanction.
"
WTC is offering a full refund of entry fees to all athletes who were
scheduled to compete at Ironman China and Ironman 70.3 China. Additionally,
all athletes will be offered a complimentary race entry into any of the 2011
Ironman and Ironman 70.3 races listed below.
PowerBar Ironman 70.3 Switzerland
Ironman 70.3 Boise
Ironman 70.3 Italy
K-Swiss Ironman 70.3 Kansas
Ironman France
Ironman 70.3 Korea Jeju
Ironman Korea Jeju
Ironman 70.3 Muncie
Ironman Switzerland
Amica Ironman 70.3 Rhode Island
Ironman 70.3 Racine
Ironman Regensburg
Finanzgruppe/Naspa Ironman 70.3 Wiesbaden European Championship
Whirlpool Ironman 70.3 Steelhead
Ford Ironman Louisville
"We were shocked by the news today that Ironman China and Ironman 70.3 China
would need to be cancelled, especially since we were unaware that this
might be the result when we decided to cancel the swim earlier this week,"
said Steve Meckfessel, chief operations officer for WTC. "We want all
athletes who committed the time and training to participate in these events
to still get their chance to compete later this season."
To ensure that Asia-Pacific athletes are represented at the 2011 World
Championship events, WTC is allocating the age group qualifying slots from
Ironman China and Ironman 70.3 China to other races in the region. Ironman
Korea Jeju, scheduled for July 3, 2011, is receiving 25 Ford Ironman World
Championship slots, giving it a total of 75, and Ironman 70.3 Korea Jeju is
receiving 10 slots for the Ironman World Championship 70.3. Additionally,
the 2011 Cobra Energy Drink Ironman 70.3 Philippines, set to take place on
August 14 in Camarines Sur, Philippines, will receive 30 slots for the Ford
Ironman World Championship.
Athletes will receive their entry fee refund within three to four weeks and
an e-mail on May 16, 2011 with information regarding race registration for
one of the complimentary events. In the coming days, athletes will also
receive information on cancelled hotel and travel arrangements. In the
meantime, all questions may be directed to c***[email protected].
Media inquiries can be directed to J*****[email protected] or Shelby.Tuttle@
ironman.com. For more information about WTC and its events, visit www.

这几天看了东方红运动网的一些帖子,觉得水还挺深的。
水面上的情况是:WTC在5/9日(离比赛日还有3周)宣布,他们刚收到通知,游泳赛段
所在的于桥水库由于维修工程的原因,不能用于比赛,因此游泳取消。比赛变为骑跑两
项。5月11日又宣布,由于合作方天津市体育局无法从中国铁人三项运动协会获得比赛
的批准,因此比赛彻底取消。
不过有在体育总局工作的ID透露,WTC去年在海南的IM China结束后单方面宣布2011赛
事移师天津,而且一直没有向中国铁三协会正式通报。所以有人猜测是铁三协会不爽,
卡了WTC一下。
现在WTC对运动员的补偿还是满给力的:退款,免费参加今年一次指定范围内的比赛,
据说还计划补偿选手们的预定机票费。铁三协会还没有作出任何声明,WTC也没有过多
指责。希望不要撕破脸皮,将来Ironman China可以继续下去。
