Ironman Sweden 2025 – Analyzing Results

2023 IM SwedenCourse Conditions

Once again, conditions in Sweden were very quick, especially on the bike. An adjustment of 27:24 is mainly a result of the fast bike course with a 25:04 adjustment this year. Compared to earlier years, this race was still a bit quicker than the course rating of 20:06.

Both Katrine and Marlene were quicker than last year’s course record set by Marlene, the new mark by Katrine is almost twelve minutes quicker. Marlene was a few seconds quicker than Katrine on the bike, she set a new bike course record by two and a half minutes over Corinne Abraham’s time from 2018(!). Hannah Munday missed the 2013 swim course record set by Jodie Swallow by just 19 seconds. 

Kona Qualifying

IM Sweden offered one Pro slot, this will be offered to

There were no new course records in the individual disciplines, but the top three women were under the 2018 course record from Corinne Abraham. The new mark by winner Marlene De Boer is five and a half minutes quicker.
