Hawaii – Returning to the place of success

With Mirinda Carfrae and Frederik Van Lierde winning the Ironman and Ruben Ruzafa’s triumph at XTerra Maui, Hawaii 2013 had exceeded expectations. In 2014 Castelli’s triathletes already had a phenomenal year with 34 wins and another 26 podiums so far. Five of them qualified for the IRONMAN® World Championship in Kailua-Kona this Saturday. Training is finished, tapering is underway and everyone hopes that on race day all the hard work pays off in a race of their lifetime. The competition is strong as nowhere else and an IRONMAN® isn’t over till it’s over. Last but not least Alex Zanardi will tackle the challenge of the demanding 226k course. Alex will swim with the help of a special Neoprene wetsuit and will do the 180k bike leg and concluding marathon by hand bike.

Dynamic Duo Carfrae and O’Donnell win Challenge St Andrews

Timothy O’Donnell and Mirinda Carfrae make it a double at St. Andrews. Despite the hurricane-like conditions the day before the race, the Challenge St Andrews took place today without a glitch. Superstar couple Tim O’Donnell and Mirinda Carfrae won in a time of 3:53:03 and 4:18:35 respectively. Except for the odd branches on the side of the road, there were very few signs of yesterday’s storm that caused all of Saturday’s races to be postponed until Sunday. Although the day started off cold, making wet suits mandatory, the temperature quickly rose to 28 degrees by the time athletes were on the run. Athletes completed the one loop swim course, then ran an uphill 400 m to transition. The two-loop bike course featured a series of rolling hills with strong winds at times, followed by a challenging but scenic run. Upon her win Carfrae said, “It was a world class course and tougher bike course that anticipated and I look forward to coming back!” Race organizers Tressa and Scott Bevington, who were up all night with their crew preparing for the races, were equally pleased, “We are thrilled with the outcomes of the races, especially given yesterday’s weather.” Kingsbrae Garden Challenge ...
