Who to watch in Beijing: Women triathletes (2)

(BEIJING, July 28) -- The world's under-23 world champion in 2007, Sweden's Lisa Norden keeps on improving as an athlete. She produced a fistful of breakthrough results in early 2008, which included three podium results: 2nd at the New Plymouth World Cup, 3rd at the Lisbon European Championships and 3rd at the Mooloolaba World Cup.

Norden is currently training under Darren Smith. If her swimming is up to scratch, then she will be an Olympic medal contender.

Norden wrote on her blog: "Finally it's all 100 per cent - I'll be on the starting line at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games."

Norden recently took some time off to return to Sweden. Her last batch of training before the Olympics will be held in the Pyrenees.
