Ironman Florida 2023 – Analyzing Results

November 5, 2023

Course Conditions

Ironman Florida is always a fast course, especially on the bike. This year was no different, and there were new bike course records by Magnus Ditlev (3:59:02, beating the 2019 time by Andrew Starykowicz) and Skye Moench (4:23:09, improving the 2020 time by Ruth Astle by 9 minutes). Run conditions were slightly slower than in previous years,but Matt Hanson still set a new run course record (2:34:06, beating the 2021 time by Gustav Iden). Both winners also set new overall course records: Rudy von Berg’s 7:34:41 improved Gustav’s 2021 record, and Skye Moench was 18 minutes quicker than Kat Matthews in 2020. (2nd place India Lee and 3rd place Jocelyn McCauley were also under the old bike and overall course records.) Both Rudy’s and Skye’s times are also new US and North American records.

Nice and Kona Qualifying

Ironman Florida offers three Pro slots for Nice (women) and Kona (men). These will be offered to

Skye Moench, India Lee and Jocelyn McCauley
and
Rudy Von Berg, Kacper Stepniak and Matthew Marquardt.

In addition, Magnus Ditlev validated his podium spot from Nice. You can find the full list of qualifiers here.

Ironman World Championship 2023 Runs

October 30, 2023

Before the IM World Champs in Nice and Kona, fast running was expected. At first glance, this expectation was fulfilled with a 2:32:41 by Patrick Lange and a 2:48:23 by Anne Haug, a new female Kona run course record.

But when digging a bit deeper, it does not seem that the overall run times in the Top 10 did not get much quicker: In the female race in Kona, you could still finish in the Top 10 with a 3:12:56 marathon (Jocelyn McCauley), and the male run times on the flat course in Nice are hard to compare to the Kona marathon. Even with the run in Nice being about three minutes quicker than in Kona, the slowest marathon among the Top 10 finishers in Nice – 2:47:55 by Clement Mignon – wasn’t that much quicker than in Kona 2022. (Leon Chevalier had the slowest run among the 2022 Top 10 with a 2:49:27.) And while it was widely assumed that to win in Nice and Kona you’d have to run one of the fastest marathons, the winners’ run times were quite a bit slower than the course records mentioned above.

The following graph shows the gap between the winner’s run time and the fastest marathon of the day:

We’ve had the biggest combined gap (18 minutes and 20 seconds for the men and women ) ever at the IM World Championships, including the biggest men’s gap (9:05 for Sam Laidlow behind Patrick Lange) since 2004 (Normann Stadler was 11:43 behind Peter Reid) and the biggest women’s gap (9:15 for Lucy Charles-Barclay behind Anne Haug) since 2000 (14:43 for Natascha Badmann behind Lori Bowden).

But does this mean that the run doesn’t matter anymore or that we’ve seen the “return of the uber bikers”? I think that is a bit too much simplified as well:

Both fastest run times this year broke the existing run course records – it’s fair to say that these were exceptionally good runs
Both winners also had decent runs – Lucy ran under three hours and had the fourth-best run of the day while Sam ran a sixth-best 2:41
Both 2023 wins showed that it often takes something unexpected (such as Lucy and Sam posting the fastest bike of the day) to win World Championships
