[edit] Ironwoman

Candice Falzon was, at 12, the youngest ever professional in the ironman series. At 16 she was a NSW state ironwoman champion.[1] In January 2008 Falzon qualified for a spot in the 2008 Nutri-Grain Ironman & Ironwoman Series[2]

[edit] Controversies

In 2007 she was involved in an embarrassing incident in a toilet cubicle with Sonny Bill Williams.[3]

After Hayley Bateup criticised Falzon and questioned her ability to finish the Coolangatta Gold (she came a very credible 14th), Phil Clayton, coach of Bateup, referred to Falzon as a "slur on the sport". [4]

[edit] TV work

Falzon appeared on the current series of It Takes Two[5], supporting the Beyond Blue charity but was eliminated sixth on 1 April 2008. Her mentor was Anthony Callea.
