Individual races take place on Friday featuring a stellar line of British and international athletes as the world title race heats up. Vicky Holland is a previous winner on the Edmonton course, but that day in 2015 featured freezing temperatures, whereas this weekend’s forecast is much more summer-like. Jonathan Brownlee has also won on this sprint course back in 2016.
