At the end of the year 2004, however, Magali Di Marco hd her comeback to triathlon and in 2005 she achieved several World Cup top ten positions. At the Olympics in Beijing in 2008 she placed 13th and in the World Championship Rankings of the year 2009 she was the number 8 among 106 female elite triathletes, [1] so for more than 15 years Magali Di Marco Messmer has now been a match for the best elite triathletes of the world.
