Race Conditions

Even if it was the first time a WTC race, the race was organized by Challenge on pretty much the same course. It was always a very fast course (course rating of 22:11), and this year was similar with an adjustment of 24:54. Both the bike (15:01) and the run (8:11) were fast.

Male Race Results

Jens Petersen-Bach had to uncork a pretty special 2:45 marathon to run down Iron-Rookie Henrik Hyldelund:

Female Race Results

On the female side, Eva Wutti posted one of the fastest IM times ever, and certainly the fastest debut:

Race Conditions

Last year, the first edition of the Kalmar race as an Ironman saw the fastest adjustment I ever calculated for a race (28:44). This year, the numbers were a bit more normal (adjustment of 12:40), pretty much comparable to what we saw this year for IM Germany. The swim and run were similar to last year, and the main difference was the bike adjustment – either the conditions were very favorable last year or this year’s course was more accurate.

Male Race Results

Pedro Gomes had a great race and performed better than his ratings in all disciplines:

Female Race Results

On the female side, Jodie Swallow managed to break her string of 2nd place finishes by biking a bit slower than she did in South Africa and Germany and then holding strong on the run (posting the best splits in each of the legs, and even leading the men’s race after the swim):

Previous Year’s TOP 3

Last year “IM Copenhagen” was still “Challenge Copenhagen” until the race organizer was bought by WTC and the race transferred to the IM series. As far as I know, the course has not been changed so the ratings from the races since 2010 are still valid.

Course Rating

The Course Rating for Challenge Copenhagen is 21:15. Behind IM Sweden (which is held on the same weekend) it is the second-fastest course in my database. (However, Sweden has only been held once as an IM, and the rating is still unstable.)

Winning Odds

Male Race Participants

Even though Jens Petersen-Bach has the better rating, my simulation shows a slight advantage for Dejan Patrcevic as he has some more experience and has had a great race in Copenhagen in 2011.

• Dejan Patrcevic: 44% (1-1)
• Jens Petersen-Bach: 34% (2-1)
• Keegan Williams: 7% (13-1)
• Esben Hovgaard: 7% (14-1)
• Jens Groenbek: 4% (22-1)

Female Race Participants

The top 3 rated athletes have the best odds but in a different order. Again, experience and a great race in Copenhagen (Lisbeth was second in 2012) leads to the best odds:

• Lisbeth Kristensen: 50% (1-1)
• Lucie Reed: 23% (3-1)
• Daniela Saemmler: 18% (5-1)
• Camilla Lindholm: 5% (20-1)
• Dianne Mcewan: 2% (42-1)

Update: Leslie LaMacchia notified me on Twitter (thanks!) that Daniel Fontana will try to get some more KPR points, and that Clemente Alonso and Logan Franks will not be racing. I’ve added Daniel who is the new front-runner (the athlete with the best rating, even if my odds favor Victor Zyemtsev) and crossed out Logan and Clemente.
