Winning Odds

Male Race Participants

This year we’ll see a re-match from last year: Timo Bracht ran down Nils Frommhold to finally win in Roth. As long as Andy Starykowicz is fit again after last year’s injury, he will make the race very interesting: He will be trying to build a big lead on the swim and bike (anyone betting on him going sub-4 for the bike?) and then hold on to his lead on the run. There are a few others that can contend for a podium spot.

• Timo Bracht: 36% (2-1)
• Nils Frommhold: 32% (2-1)
• Clemente Alonso McKernan: 19% (4-1)
• Andrew Starykowicz: 5% (19-1)
• Horst Reichel: 3% (31-1)
• Markus Fachbach: 2% (43-1)

Female Race Participants

Yvonne is the clear favorite, she has won here in 2007 and 2008. Gina Crawford another top athlete that is always good for a solid race. Anja Beranek will look for a good long distance race after deciding not to chase a Kona slot this year.

• Yvonne Van Vlerken: 54% (1-1)
• Gina Crawford: 18% (4-1)
• Diana Riesler: 18% (5-1)
• Anja Beranek: 8% (11-1)

Race Conditions

If there was one thing the 2015 edition of “CdA” will be remembered for, it was the heat. Temperatures well over 100°F (38°C) lead to a discussion of shortening the race before deciding on an earlier start, a non-wetsuit swim, a high DNF rate and some spectacular struggles (though no serious issues as far as I have heard). While the swim and bike were pretty normal, the run was very slow for CdA (adjustment of -4:54), and the overall adjustment of -8:24 leads to a new course rating of -0:02.

Male Race Results

Andy Potts made it clear from the start that he was focused on winning this race – he didn’t want to waste any energy and Barrett Brandon was first out of the water. After that Andy quickly took control of the race, he had a great race posting both the fastest bike and run, winning by more than 20 minutes. He was followed by Callum Millward who proved to be a tough competitor in tough conditions in only his second Ironman race. The surprise third finisher was Stephen Kilshaw who edged out countryman Trevor Wurtele for the final spot on the podium.

Female Race Results

After making up the swim deficit to super-swimmer Amanda Stevens, Heather Jackson took the lead by mile 65 on the bike and went on to posted the fastest marathon by far. Similar to Andy, Heather had a huge winning margin. Only four weeks after IM Brasil, Amanda Stevens finished second; both Heather and Amanda have enough points for a July Kona slot. The final spot on the podium went to Kim Schwabenbauer.

The only DNF in the women’s pro field was Dede Griesbauer who was mowed down by a truck illegally entering the race course. She was banged up pretty badly, but was allowed to leave the hospital after a few x-rays. She did not have a chance to score the points she still needed for a Kona slot, I hope she recovers quickly for another chance!

Race Conditions

As usual, IM Austria was fast, but we’ve seen a lot of faster adjustments than this year’s 16:45. All three legs were slower than last year.

Male Race Results

Marino Vanhoenacker had another fantastic race in Austria: He was in the front group on the swim, then posted a new bike course record and finished the day off with a 2:45 marathon.

He was probably going for his 7:45 course record from 2011 but came up just short. Still a fantastic result for him, and there will be some speculation now about another Kona start for him.

With a gap of almost 20 minutes he was followed by Michael Weiss and Ivan Rana who once more posted the fastest marathon but was too far back after loosing time on the bike.

Female Race Results

Eva Wutti had a fantastic day to win her home Ironman: 8:45 was close to the course record, and her 2:54:42 is the fastest 2015 marathon so far. With the 2000 points for the win she also secured a July Kona slot.

Lisa Huetthaler finished in second place, she was almost run down by Sarah Piampiano who was probably hoping for a faster bike but finished with a great marathon and new PRs.

Race Conditions

Compared to the course rating of 4:42, conditions were pretty slow with an adjustment of -0:58, especially the bike was hard with an adjustment of -6:11. As usual, the run was pretty quick, and we saw two low-2:40s for the men and two sub-3:00 runs for the women.

Male Race Results

Boris Stein won his second Ironman race after IM Switzerland last year.

It took a second best bike to make up most of the deficit he had after the swim, but he was still eight minutes behind Frenchman Romain Guillaume. But Boris’ second best marathon was more than 15 minutes better than Romain’s and he took the lead after 28k. By then he was only threatened by Victor Del Corral who had the best marathon and kept the pressure on, but Boris won by 2 1/2 minutes in front of Victor and Romain.

Female Race Results

Jeanne Collonge was leading the race into T2, but she quickly struggled to run well in the heat and was forced to DNF. By then Cait Snow had taken the lead with a 1:27 half marathon, but Lisa Roberts had run a 1:25 half and was slowly eating into the lead. In the end Cait Snow posted a 2:58 marathon, holding on to 70 seconds of her lead for an emotional win.

Lisa posted a 2:54 to finish second. Third place was taken by Emma Pooley who had a great 5:16 bike leg wich she was able to follow with a solid 3:12 marathon.
