We are hearing some exciting news out of Canada.

It is rumoured that there will be an announcement tomorrow (Friday local time) from Ironman CEO Andrew Messick. He is in Mont Tremblant along with Quebec Prime Minister / Premier Pauline Marois. This is the site for the North American Ironman Championships.

There is an indication that this will probably be the site for 2014 Ironman 70.3 World Championships.
