"We had a very hard time picking this year's triathlete of the year because so many possible triathletes stood out," said EverymanTri.com publisher Roman Mica.
"In the end we selected Joanna Zeiger, not only because she won almost every single race she entered this year, not only because she won the 70.3 Ironman Championships, not only because at 39-years-of age she just keeps getting better and better, but because 2008 represents a very big Cherry for Zeiger on a long and illustrious career," added Mica.
The editorial team was made up of twelve triathletes. These individuals represent coaches, race directors, triathlon product manufactures, amateur triathletes, professional triathletes, triathlon news board administrators, and triathlon business owners.
In other words, they made up a leading and representative cross section of the triathlon community.
