"It's been a surreal year to be honest. People call me the World Champion and I'm sat there looking around thinking 'oh yeah, you mean me!'" says Non Stanford, her victory in the ITU World Triathlon Grand Final in London still yet to sink in.
"It's dynamic and fast and a lot of things can happen in race - as they did in London for my race, where there was a lot of drama going on - but I think it's a new challenge for people, it's the new, shiner model of the marathon and it offers people variety and choice in their exercise." The Welsh star will be pleased that the focus will soon turn back training and the 2014 season although she could hold another title before it begins. Remember you can watch the Sportswomen of the Year awards live from Sky Studios on December 5.
