Kiwi triathlete Hayden Wilde has extended his unbeaten streak to five consecutive wins on the T100 Triathlon World Tour.<\/p>\n
Already victorious this season at the Singapore, London, French Riviera<\/a> and Spain<\/a> events, Wilde put in a dominant performance at Wollongong in Australia on Saturday.<\/p>\n The Kiwi comfortably beat German Mika Noodt, who matched him on the swim and bike but failed to keep up on the run. Wilde crossed the line in 3:06:07.<\/p>\n “I loved today. It was super nice to be out there with so many familiar faces and the public really getting behind triathlon,” Wilde said.<\/p>\n “Running with a smile on my face was great and to put a show on for the fans was amazing. It helped push you through a pretty challenging run course today.<\/p>\n “I was happy with the swim leg. I kept in touch. While we were missing some of the big bikers this week, so the start of the ride wasn’t as aggressive, but in the flatter sections Mika was pushing and we worked well together and got a few minutes up the road from the field. Then it was about putting it out there on the run at the first uphill.”<\/p>\n Wilde’s perfect winning record means he leads the T100 Race to Qatar going into the penultimate Dubai event in November and the final on 10-13 December. <\/p>\n The 28-year-old only returned to competition in August after he was hit by a truck while on a training ride<\/a> in Japan earlier this year.<\/p>\n He broke four ribs, his scapula, and sustained lung damage in the crash.<\/p>\n Olympic triathlon star Hayden Wilde has confirmed he\u2019s set to race in the T100 London this weekend, three months after breaking his shoulder blade, six ribs, and suffered a punctured lung.
