  • Camilla Lindholm Borg: 6% (16-1)
  • Celine Schaerer: 2% (64-1)

Kona Qualifying

Michelle Vesterby, Celine Schwerer and also very likely Corinne Abraham have already qualified in July. But there are a few others that can still qualify in August with a good result in Copenhagen:

  • Kristin Moeller should be okay with a fifth place finish, she has also registered for a number of other races.
  • Jeanne Collonge needs at least a podium finish to improve her total.
  • Pamela Tastets and Darbi Roberts will need at least a second place to have a reasonable chance for an August slot.

KPR points and Prize Money

IM Sweden is a P-2000 race. It is an MPRO-only race and has a total prize purse of 40.000 US$.

Male Race Participants

The strength of the field is 12% of a typical Kona field.

There is a number of athletes that probably planned to do IM Sweden in case they missed qualifying (such as Thiago Vinhal, David Plese, Mark Duelsen or Daniel Fontana). As indicated by the “*” a lot of athletes have also registered for other Ironman races a week before or even on the same weekend. It is quite likely that there will be some changes before race day.

Kona Qualifying

There are a few athletes that still have a chance to qualify for Kona with a good result in Sweden:

  • Giulio Molinari, Denis Chevrot and Harry Wiltshire already have a good number of points, a fifth place or better should be enough for them to get an August slot.
  • Daniil Sapunov, Michael Weiss, Cameron Wurf, Markus Fachbach, Justin Daerr and Nick Baldwin need at least a podium, probably even a second place.

Among the field, Thiago Vinhal, David Plese, Marc Duelsen and Daniel Fontana have already qualified in July.
