Race

As per usual, you can find additional information on the participants in the detail post.

Previous Results

Austria is one of the quickest courses. It’s the fastest of the “official” Ironman courses (with several sub-8 times posted by Marino Vanhoenacker and at least one “world-record” by Sandra Wallenhorst). It has a course rating of 16:10, only Challenge Roth (19:03) is quicker (by almost 3 minutes).

Last years’s race was won by Marino Vanhoenacker in 7:52 and Eva Dollinger in 9:18.

Male Participants

Marino is always racing Austria, and he always posts great results, so it’s not surprise he’s the favorite for this race:

However, he has had a few DNFs, although I’m not aware of any injuries. Next on the list is Tom Lowe who has just one result to his credit (a great time in IM Arizona). He was injured for the first race he was on the start list (IM South Africa), I hope he’s back on form and can continue a stellar IM career. Michael Weiss’s last IM race was also a DNF while defending his title at IM St. George. Unless there is a major upset, I’m pretty sure that the winner will come from these three athletes. Austria is paying price money up to 8th place, and there are a lot of athletes that will race for these spots.

Female Participants

Even though last year’s winner Eve Dollinger is back at the race, she is not the favorite:

Race Conditions

Coeur d’Alene is usually a medium-fast course, with a course rating of 3:49 a bit slower than IM France (7:53). This year, however, conditions in CdA were pretty good (adjustment of 5:52), even better than this year’s IM France (adjustment of 4:35).

Male Results

A few late entries to the race (notably Craig Alexander and Tom Evans) made the race at the top a lot more interesting. Crowie ticked the box of validating his Kona spot with an IM race outside of Kona in a convincing fashion. In a pretty close race Maik Twelsiek pushed him to a CdA course record:

Rank	Name	Nation	Actual Time	Expected Time
1	Craig Alexander	AUS	08:19:48	08:15:40
2	Maik Twelsiek	GER	08:24:59	08:34:54

15	Arland Macasieb	PHL	10:24:40	10:07:44
16	Cesar Valera	VEN	10:27:50	09:35:29

Expected time is based on athlete’s rating (prior to race) and race conditions.

Even though Crowie won this race, he was a bit slower than his rating predicted, and as consequence slipped to forth spot in the overall ratings. (I’ll update the TOP10 ratings page after IM Austria, when new 3rd Marino Vanhoenacker  has his next race.

Maik Twelsiek continued to improve his rating, he has two second spots this year, both times being passed pretty late in the run, but holding on for second just a few minutes behind first place. He still has to post his first sub-3h marathon, I’m looking forward to Kona – if he manages to crack 3 hours there he’ll be a safe bet for a top 10 finish there.

Craig and Maik were way in front of everyone else, Tom Evans came in third almost half an hour back, and he was more than 10 minutes clear of forth spot.

Female Results

On the female side, we had another athlete “ticking the box”: Julie Dibens finished her second Ironman, secured her Kona spot and won in convincing fashion:

Rank	Name	Nation	Actual Time	Expected Time
1	Julie Dibens	USA	09:16:40	09:06:26
2	Caitlin Snow	USA	09:29:18	09:39:20
3	Logan Franks		09:34:58	09:19:37
4	Haley Cooper	USA	09:56:21	10:08:52
5	Caroline Gregory	USA	10:05:53	n/a
6	Desiree Ficker	USA	10:10:42	10:15:18

Expected time is based on athlete’s rating (prior to race) and race conditions.

Julie could afford to walk a bit on the run (she twittered that she officially know what a bonk feels like now) and still was more than 10 minutes ahead of Caitlin Snow. With her second IM result, Julie is also eligible for the top 10 ratings and comes in 3rd place for now (after Chrissie and Rinnie). As usual, IM Hawaii is shaping up to be a very interesting field!

Ironman race season in Europe has really started! The first race on the “mainland” was IM France, and in the next weeks Austria, Switzerland and Germany are going to follow (predictions for these races are going to be up soon). This post looks at the results of IM France.

Race Conditions

The conditions in France seem to have been quite hard, I’ve only got an adjustment of 4:35, leading to a new course rating of 7:53 – i.e. this year’s race was 3 1/2 minutes slower than what is typical for France.

Male Results

Five-time winner Marcel Zamora was not able to defend his title, instead Frederik van Lierde continued his great season, improved on his expected time and won quite convincingly:

Rank	Name	Nation	Actual Time	Expected Time
1	Frederik Van Lierde	BEL	08:28:30	08:39:48
2	Francois Chabaud	FRA	08:37:18	08:45:51

15	Chris Brands	NLD	09:49:31	09:13:59
16	Leandro Gonzalez Bonet	ARG	10:58:15	09:31:32

Expected time is based on athlete’s rating (prior to race) and race conditions.

Zamora was also beaten by Francois Chabaud (who managed to put another good race together after a number of not-so-good results), but he was able to come in in front of pre-race favorite Paul Amey.

Female Results

On the women’s side, German Silvia Felt managed to win her second professional Ironman race:

Rank	Name	Nation	Actual Time	Expected Time
1	Silvia Felt	GER	09:34:31	09:31:09
2	Martina Dogana	ITA	09:45:56	09:50:38

12	Stephanie Jones	USA	11:12:26	10:40:40
13	Fiona Whitby	CAN	11:38:06	10:24:44

Expected time is based on athlete’s rating (prior to race) and race conditions.

Even though Silvia came in a little bit slower than was to be expected from her great IM Florida time and 2nd place Martina Dogana and 3rd place Britta Martin managed to go faster than their ratings predicted (by 5 and 6 minutes respectively), Silvia won by more than 10 minutes.
