    The finish line is in sight for one of New Zealand's most decorated long distance triathletes

    The finish line is in sight for one of New Zealand's most decorated long distance triathletes


    12-time champion Cameron Brown will race his final professional Ironman New Zealand at Taupo next week.

    It'll be the 50-year-old's 25th time competing in the race, having made his debut when it was held in Auckland in 1997.



    Brown first won the event in 2001 - the last of his 12 victories coming in 2016.
