IM Vitoria-Gasteiz

Ironman Vitoria-Gasteiz 2022 – Analyzing Results

VitoriaCourse Conditions

This was only the second time the Vitoria race was contested as a Pro Ironman race. Compared to 2019, this year’s race was 9 minutes slower, mainly because of the tougher run (6 minutes slower). Still, we’ve seen a number of course records. First, Cameron Wurf smashed the bike course record, his 4:01 was 15 minutes quicker than the fastest bike time in 2019 and almost ten minutes quicker than anyone else this year. On the run, winner Nick Kastelein broke the run and overall course records set by Eneko Llanos. The whole podium went sub-8 and faster than Eneko. 

Kona Qualifying

IM Vitoria offered two Kona Pro slots. This will be offered to

  • Nick Kastelein
    and
  • Cameron Wurf.

You can find all Kona qualifiers here.

Ironman Vitoria 2019 – Results

NewImageCourse Conditions

Vitoria was a pretty quick course, an adjustment of 20:10 makes it about as fast as the races in Austria, Roth or Barcelona. Most of the “speed” comes from a fast bike course (adjustment of 18:28).

As it was the first “official” Ironman on this course, all the fastest legs are “new” course records (swim by Josh Amberger and Judith Corachan, bike, run and overall by the winners Heather Jackson and Eneko Llanos).

Kona Qualifying

IM Vitoria had two Kona Pro slots, one for the men and one for the women. Both winners of the race were already qualified, so these slots go to

  • Nina Derron
    and
  • Josh Amberger.

As always, the full list of qualified athletes can be found on the Kona 2019 page.
