Ironman Lake Placid 2023 – Analyzing Results

2023 LakePlacidCourse Conditions

I have been told that this year’s bike course was “officially short” by about 2k. This added to a bike leg that was significantly faster than what is typical for Lake Placid by about eight minutes. (So either the bike was even “more short” or the conditions were exceptionally quick – or a combination of both.) But overall, this differences isn’t large enough to completely discard this years results as course records as there have been other years that also had quite similarly quick conditions.

Overall, Joe Skipper was ten minutes quicker than the old course record by Rasmus Svenningsen. (Ben Hoffman and Matt Hanson were also under the old record.) While Joe’s new bike record of 4:19 may require a little asterisk because of the shortened bike, it was still two and a half minutes quicker than the old record. On the run, Matt Hanson was also more than two minutes quicker than the old run course record set by Brent McMahon last year.

Nice and Kona Qualifying

Lake Placid offered two slots each for the men (Nice) and women (Kona). These have been assigned to

  • Michael Weiss and Maximilan Hammerle 
    and
  • Alice Alberts and Jen Annett.

Joe Skipper, Ben Hoffman and Matt Hanson were already qualified, Josh Amberger and Erin Snelgrove must have declined their slots.

Ironman Vitoria 2023 – Analyzing Results

VitoriaCourse Conditions

Compared to the 2019 race (the only other race with a female Pro category), conditions were slower by roughly four minutes. Nonetheless, winner Gurutze Frades set a new overall course record by about six minutes, improving the old mark set by Heather Jackson. This was mainly a result of her new run course record which was almost thirteen minutes quicker than Heather’s old run course record. Heather’s third course record, the bike leg, was also broken – Els Visser was two and a half minutes quicker.

Kona Qualifying

With a number of athletes already qualified, the two female Kona Pro slots go to

  • Fiona Moriarty
    and
  • Carla Dahan.

Ironman Switzerland 2023 – Analyzing Results

IMThunCourse Conditions

Thun was the location of IM Switzerland for the first time in 2021, and that year the swim was short and the times not really eligible for course records. As 2022 was a female-Pro-only race, we now have the first set of “proper” men’s course records:

  • Swim: 51:58 by Andreas Salvisberg (the fastest swimmer, Andrew Horsfall-Turner, did not finish the race)
  • Bike: 4:17:19 by Ruben Zepuntke
  • Run: 2:40:48 by Jan van Berkel
  • Overall: 8:05:01 by Jan van Berkel

Nice Qualifying

IM Switzerland had two slots for the men’s World Championship in Nice. As winner Jan von Berkel was already qualified, these go to

  • Leonard Arnold
    and
  • Andrea Salvissberg.
