Ironman Florida 2019 – Analyzing Results

November 4, 2019

Course Conditions

As usual, Florida has been a fast course (adjustment of 21:57, leading to a new course rating of 22:12) but not quite as quick as in previous years (the fastest year was 2013 with an adjustment of 33:24).

Andrew Starykowicz was able to post a new bike course record of 4:01:19, improving on his own time from 2013, setting the new fastest bike leg outside of IM Texas. Second place finisher Ben Hoffman posted a new run course CR of 2:36:09, improving on the 2013 marathon of Victor Del Corral. This is also the fastest run time ever (outside of the the Texas 2018 race and not counting some obviously short courses).

The overall course record was also by Victor Del Corral from 2013 (7:53), both Joe Skipper and Ben Hoffman were able to go faster this year. Joe’s winning time of 7:46:28 is the new CR. Joe was also close to the fastest times in the bike and run, and his combined “on land time” of 6:44:52 is the fastest time I could find in my database (previously Lionel Sanders 6:47:09 from Arizona 2016).

Kona Qualifiers

IM Florida has two male Kona slots, these go to the first two finishers

Joe Skipper
and
Ben Hoffman.
