Race Conditions
As usual, IM Sweden was a quick course. The race adjustment of 20:05 is almost the same as last year (20:09).
Male Race Results
Horst Reichel won his first Ironman race. After exiting the swim with the lead group, he posted the fastest bike split, and ran a solid 2:51 marathon. Victor Zyemtsev finished second and collected valuable KPR points. Tom Lowe was the fastest athlete on land, but had to make up too much ground after a 57 minute swim to place better than third.
