At IRONMAN Sweden, Clemente Alonso-McKernan came out of the water in first place. Things changed early on the bike, however, when Australia’s strong rider Cameron Wurf put on an impressive performance and caught up with the Spanish leader early on. Everyone who saw Wurf in transition had an idea about the Australian’s match plan: He stormed through transition looking like someone aiming for nothing else than the win. Thanks to a new bike record, Wurf dominated the field for 2 hours while Mc-Kern more
Marino Vanhoenacker (BEL) was in his own time zone this weekend in Quebec at IRONMAN Mont-Tremblant. The Belgian legend went to work early into the bike and managed to carry a 12-minute advantage as he raced into an empty transition. The 41-year-old didn't let off the gas for the run as he smacked out a race-best run to claim his 16th IRONMAN title of his career by winning margin of over 20 minutes. more
Michelle Vesterby was the Danish star shining above Denmark’s capital today; two years after she celebrated the win at the KMD IRONMAN Copenhagen, she came back to nail the victory at this pro women only competition. After pro men were racing here the year before, Vesterby stormed through men’s age group field right from the get-go. Seven weeks after ranking third at the IRONMAN Austria, she was off and away in the women’s pro field from the get-go. Her strongest chasers, Corinne Abraham and Sof more
British athletes reigned in Ireland, where in both the men’s and women’s competition, winners were made on the run. There was no doubt that in the men’s race, it was on France's Romain Guillaume to attack on the bike. He did as expected and stormed to the front in a fashion that has made him often a race leader. more
The Kiwi, New Zealand’s moniker, is a flightless bird but IRONMAN 70.3 Bintan showed that Kiwis can fly with a double victory for Mike Phillips and Amelia Watkinson. Phillips has been a part-time athlete after his ITU days, mixing life as a structural engineer – a sought-after profession in the wake of his earthquake-hit home city of Christchurch – with that of the professional endurance triathlete. more
There’s a habit forming here in Europe as Osborne and Poor won for the second straight week, this time in the Saxony mountains. The forecast all week was doom and gloom. They called for rain on Friday at 17:00 (5pm), and rain all day on Saturday. It never came on Friday until about 23:00 (11pm) and it came hard. At the venue a bunch of expo tents were ripped from the ground and tossed meters away. But as quickly as the storm came – it went. Race day morning was cool and cloudy but no rain. more
IRONMAN Copenhagen course passes many of the picturesque city's historic landmarks, such as the world-famous Opera House, the Little Mermaid statue, Amalienborg Palace (home of the Danish Queen) and the New Harbour waterfront.

The biggest race on the XTERRA European tour is here in Zittau/ Olbersdorf, Germany. It is also the oldest XTERRA in the Tour, and will be a very big event. This is the next to last stop before the final and a gold race so most of the athletes fighting for points on the Tour will be here. This was very good news for our race organizer – the famous “Benno”- and XTERRA Europe, because even with the ITU world championship in Penticton Canada, we will have the best Elite field of the season so far. more
Mont-Tremblant is simply an idyllic race location for IRONMAN athletes and their families and friends. The quaint village and its surrounding communities offer a walkable, easily navigable location for all your race-week activities, including hiking, kayaking, golfing, and cycling. Athletes will start the 2.4-mile (3.8 km) swim in Lac Tremblant, which in August boasts comfortably warm, wetsuit-legal temperatures. The quarter-mile run to T1 is lined with a soft red carpet, and cheering spectator more
