Intro:
From skiing to kayaking - over 40 world class athletes competed in a multi-sport relay called 'Peak to Creek' in Oetztal, Austria.
Script:
From the peak, to the creek. Over 40 world class athletes took part in one of the toughest sport medleys you could imagine in Austria. It begins with skiing, and not the downhill kind until they've climbed to the top. Here those who go up hand over to those who go down, for eventual winners Allstar 2 that meant
Olympic gold medalist Christian Hoffman handing over to Christoph Noesig.
After he slid down the spectacular course he sent Mountainbiker Daniel Gathof on his way.
The icy ground eventually disappeared and he could then show his true skills.
But the team really asserted themselves when climber Stew Watson took over.
On the road bikes the gap narrowed as Andy Traxl was challenged by Jan Ulrich.
Kayaker Severin Haeberling extended the lead once again.
And then they all got together on a raft for the final leg, they crossed first for a comfortable if somewhat wet win.
