Course Records

Last year was the first time that Kalmar was an official Ironman, so all the course records are from 2012:

Course Rating

So far, IM Sweden is the fastest course in my database with a Course Rating of 28:42.

Race Adjustments for IM Sweden

Year Adjustment Swim Adj. Bike Adj. Run Adj. # of Athletes Rating Swim Rating Bike Rating Run Rating
2012 28:42 00:10 21:54 07:53 25 28:42 00:10 21:54 07:53

Based on the numbers, I have some doubts that the bike course was accurate in 2012 – it’ll be interesting to see if the times are going to be as fast again this year. (Therefore, the predicted times – based on the 2012 course – should be taken with a grain of salt.)

KPR points and Price Money

IM Sweden has 2000 KPR points for the winner. It has a total price purse of 50k$.

Female Race Participants

I’m not sure if Jodie Swallow is going to race in Sweden or if she entered in case she needs more Kona points. If she does race, she is the clear favorite.
