FILE--Canada's Simon Whitfield, right, races Igor Sysoev of Russia to the finish line during the Elite Men's World Triathlon in Vancouver, Sunday, June 8, 2008. Whitfield finished in sixth place. There have been changes in his sport and dramatic shifts in his person life, but a constant remains buried inside triathlete Whitfield. He wants to win a medal at this summer's Olympic Games in Beijing. The method of how he gets back on the podium may be different, but the desire remains the same. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Jonathan Hayward
