Ironman Copenhagen 2021 (Aug 22nd) – Seedings

IMCPH Updates:

  • August 18th: The startlist on the IM Copenhagen website also lists #58 – Cameron Wurf. He’ll certainly add color to the race, but he’s also already Kona qualified so he won’t factor in the race for the Kona slots.
  • August 17th: In the absence of an officially updated startlist, I have added “*FRA*” to the athletes who have raced in Frankfurt and are therefore unlikely to start. However, some could still be chasing a Kona slot, so it’s not certain that they will be a DNS. I have also removed a few *’s from the athletes who were on the Frankfurt list but didn’t race.

    Hi! will you update after Frankfurt? many top contenders have raced there and will not be showing up in CPH

    1. Thorsten

      There are a lot of athletes where I agree that their start is “unlikely”. However, there isn’t an official update of the startlist. Until then, I have updated the *’s (another race within 8 days) with *FRA* for those who have at least started Frankfurt. We will see who will turn up in Copenhagen.
