Meet Australian Cameron Wurf and you quickly wonder: is there anything he can’t do? An Olympic rower-turned-pro-bike rider, Cam is now one of the world’s best Ironman athletes – all while racing on the road for one of the leading men’s road teams, the INEOS Grenadiers.
He’s raced in the world’s biggest gravel event, Unbound, and is planning an assault on the tortuous multi-stage mountain bike race Cape Epic with INEOS team-mate Pauline Ferrand-Prévot. Now 40, he’s as determined as ever to keep competing and still firmly believes he can win the IRONMAN World Championship one day.
Rob and Eliot welcomed Cam to Just Ride the day after 2023’s IRONMAN World Champs, held in Nice, and got a full debrief on his swim, ride and run to 14th – before discovering just how many more strings there are to Cameron’s bow, while learning about the intricacies of triathlon along the way. One of the most idiosyncratic competitors in elite sport, the chat with Cam is one of the most fun episodes of Just Ride so far.
