Race Conditions
IM Taiwan moved from a date earlier in the year (April) to October – a change that can clearly be seen in the race data. While the swim and bike were similar to last year, the run was much slower, an adjustment of -18:53 is one of the slowest ever – a lot of athletes struggled in the heat.
