Danish triathlete, Aleksandar Sørensen-Markovic is racing Ironman Wisconsin this weekend.

I got hold of him a few weeks ago and did the “10 Questions with…”

For starters, and the reader’s benefit, write a short paragraph about yourself:

I began triathlon back in 2002 to loose some weight. I was fascinated by the lifestyle and have always like to train.

I do Ironman triathlon because I had never tried to swim prior to beginning with triathlon.

I am very easy going and am in triathlon for the lifestyle. I love to compete but it’s the training every day that I really love. The races are also nice but mostly I just love being a part of triathlon. I have met some cool people and enjoy my life as a coach and athlete now.

Burry just won his 1st rainbow jersey at UCI MTB Worlds in Australia. This kid is amazingly talented, really nice, good with business and we will see him go a really long way. He is currently ranked 2nd in the UCI World Cup series.

Burry is a fellow Specialized team mate and Afrikaans speaking South African. Earlier this year we rode the 3 stage Sani2C race as a pair. Read my blog here: Sani2C with Burry

We (he has 1700+ Facebook “friends”!) are really stoked for that rainbow jersey!

I wish I made my breakthrough at 22 instead of 29…

10 Questions with South African XTERRA athlete, Dan Hugo

For starters, and the reader’s benefit, write a short paragraph about yourself:

I’m evading reality but painting a canvas with all the colour I can find. There’s a definite lack of technique, more just splashing lines and blobs of colour and allowing them to take on a story of their own. I was inspired, you see, by this blog’s animate owner. So the canvas is life, and the paint is sport, specifically triathlon, mixed with travel, odd characters, brilliant brands and the dream that perhaps, at the end, the canvas will look like a master piece (which it doesnt right now). I’m 24, feel somewhere between 15 and 40, depending on the time of day and how hungry I am. I base in Stellenbosch South Africa, and Truckee in California when over to the USA.
