Faris Al Sultan said he hopes to be at his "absolute best" for the Ironman World Championship when he competes in triathlon's ultimate event in Kona, Hawaii, in October.
By winning the European Ironman last weekend in Frankfurt, Al Sultan qualified for the world championship race, which he won in 2005.
"I had pretty low expectations before this race, especially as I was still carrying the flu and I much prefer warmer race conditions than those we had in Germany," he said.
"This race has given me the confidence and flexibility to work towards being at my absolute best this October."
Al Sultan, who is the captain of the Abu Dhabi Triathlon Team, produced his best performance in years to win in his home country. He put up with heavy rain and strong winds to win by almost six minutes from fellow German Jan Raphael, a bigger-than-usual gap in this kind of endurance race.
He was strong in all three disciplines - swimming, cycling and running - as he powered his way to victory in a time of 8hrs 13mins 50secs.
Al Sultan, 33, came out of the water in second place, and then built up a solid lead on his bike, one he never looked like losing on the final running stage.
His was the second Ironman win for the Abu Dhabi team this season; the UK's Rachel Joyce enjoyed her first victory, at the Lanzarote event in Spain, with a wire-to-wire victory.
Joyce's win also secured her automatic entry into the Hawaii championships.

Another way to earn air miles
In addition to the Emirates and Etihad programmes, there is the Air Miles Middle East card, which offers members the ability to choose any airline, has no black-out dates and no restrictions on seat availability. Air Miles is linked up to HSBC credit cards and can also be earned through retail partners such as Spinneys, Sharaf DG and The Toy Store.
An Emirates Dubai-London round-trip ticket costs 180,000 miles on the Air Miles website. But customers earn these ‘miles’ at a much faster rate than airline miles. Adidas offers two air miles per Dh1 spent. Air Miles has partnerships with websites as well, so booking.com and agoda.com offer three miles per Dh1 spent.
“If you use your HSBC credit card when shopping at our partners, you are able to earn Air Miles twice which will mean you can get that flight reward faster and for less spend,” says Paul Lacey, the managing director for Europe, Middle East and India for Aimia, which owns and operates Air Miles Middle East.

Short-term let permits explained
Homeowners and tenants are allowed to list their properties for rental by registering through the Dubai Tourism website to obtain a permit.
Tenants also require a letter of no objection from their landlord before being allowed to list the property.
There is a cost of Dh1,590 before starting the process, with an additional licence fee of Dh300 per bedroom being rented in your home for the duration of the rental, which ranges from three months to a year.
Anyone hoping to list a property for rental must also provide a copy of their title deeds and Ejari, as well as their Emirates ID.

Four motivational quotes from Alicia's Dubai talk
“The only thing we need is to know that we have faith. Faith and hope in our own dreams. The belief that, when we keep going we’re going to find our way. That’s all we got.”
“Sometimes we try so hard to keep things inside. We try so hard to pretend it’s not really bothering us. In some ways, that hurts us more. You don’t realise how dishonest you are with yourself sometimes, but I realised that if I spoke it, I could let it go.”
“One good thing is to know you’re not the only one going through it. You’re not the only one trying to find your way, trying to find yourself, trying to find amazing energy, trying to find a light. Show all of yourself. Show every nuance. All of your magic. All of your colours. Be true to that. You can be unafraid.”
“It’s time to stop holding back. It’s time to do it on your terms. It’s time to shine in the most unbelievable way. It’s time to let go of negativity and find your tribe, find those people that lift you up, because everybody else is just in your way.”

When Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi
Known as The Lady of Arabic Song, Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi on November 28, 1971, as part of celebrations for the fifth anniversary of the accession of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan as Ruler of Abu Dhabi. A concert hall was constructed for the event on land that is now Al Nahyan Stadium, behind Al Wahda Mall. The audience were treated to many of Kulthum's most well-known songs as part of the sold-out show, including Aghadan Alqak and Enta Omri.
