We are looking back on another Kona Ironman, a memorable race in many aspects. Congrats to all athletes on racing this year and performing with the very best in this sports. Some had the race of their life, others were not able to realise their dreams. We would especially like to emphasize Cameron Wurf’s bike performance. Wearing the all new PR Speed Suit (more here) he set the new record to 4:09:06. The Pease brothers (Kyle and Brent) fulfilled a dream of a lifetime and finished after 14:28:59.

As we head into the biggest race week of the year, we wanted to share some insights that Mirinda Carfrae and Timothy O’Donnell have gained over many years of training and racing, some humbling, some downright hilarious. We spent a day with them in Boulder at the end of August, and followed them during dawn laps in the pool, to the gym, out on the bike, and finally back home. We sat down with them for a Q&A session where we were able to hear their thoughts on past mistakes, musical guilty pleasures, and what it has been like to be a part of the triathlon world over the years.
