IM Lake Placid

Ironman Lake Placid 2023 – Analyzing Results

2023 LakePlacidCourse Conditions

I have been told that this year’s bike course was “officially short” by about 2k. This added to a bike leg that was significantly faster than what is typical for Lake Placid by about eight minutes. (So either the bike was even “more short” or the conditions were exceptionally quick – or a combination of both.) But overall, this differences isn’t large enough to completely discard this years results as course records as there have been other years that also had quite similarly quick conditions.

Overall, Joe Skipper was ten minutes quicker than the old course record by Rasmus Svenningsen. (Ben Hoffman and Matt Hanson were also under the old record.) While Joe’s new bike record of 4:19 may require a little asterisk because of the shortened bike, it was still two and a half minutes quicker than the old record. On the run, Matt Hanson was also more than two minutes quicker than the old run course record set by Brent McMahon last year.

Nice and Kona Qualifying

Lake Placid offered two slots each for the men (Nice) and women (Kona). These have been assigned to

  • Michael Weiss and Maximilan Hammerle 
    and
  • Alice Alberts and Jen Annett.

Joe Skipper, Ben Hoffman and Matt Hanson were already qualified, Josh Amberger and Erin Snelgrove must have declined their slots.

Ironman Lake Placid 2022 – Analyzing Results

IMLPCourse Conditions

This year, we’ve seen some fast bike times: Michael Weiss was almost four minutes quicker than Rasmus Svenningsson last year, and Heather Jackson rode three minutes quicker than the 2021 bike course record set by Lisa Norden. However, the course was a few miles short, in the coverage they said that the out-and-backs were shortened because of construction and other events. I won’t count the bike times as course records. In addition, female winner Sarah True would have set a new overall course record, almost breaking 9 hours and besting Heather’s time from 2016 by 9 minutes. (Even with two or three extra miles on the bike, Sarah would quite likely have been able to beat Heather’s time, but what time should I consider as the course record then?)

Kona Qualifying

IM Lake Placid offered 2m + 2f Kona Pro slots, these will go to

  • Cody Beals and Michael Weiss for the men
    and
  • Sarah True and Jodie Robertson for the women.

Heather Jackson was already qualified. The full list of qualifiers can be found here.
