Ironman Hamburg 2017 (August 13th) – Seedings
Update Aug 10th: I have crossed out the athletes that won’t be racing as per the latest startlist.
Update Aug 11th: I’ve crossed out a few more athletes who have not showed up for the Pro Meeting. Most notably, Michael Raelert won’t be racing as he is in bed with a fever. The male race will consist of 13 Pros, for the females there are expected to be 8 starters.
Here’s a shot of the top contenders from Friday’s Pro Panel (from left to right: Markus Fachbach, James Cunnama, Daniela Sammler, Eva Wutti and Kristin Möller):
This is the first race on this course – therefore there are no previous results, course records or adjustment of the predicted times for a fast or slow course.
