Kona Training and Questions with Mirinda Carfrae and Timothy O’Donnell

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.

Tim O’Donnell wins IM 70.3 Gdynia

Just one week after his 4th place at IM 70.3 Santa Rosa the Boulder-based athlete was again at the start in Poland. Tim managed a very good start and celebrated a start-to-finish victory this past Sunday ahead of the two Germans Nils Frommhold and Markus Liebelt. “I was excited to race. I took the lead in the swim, maintained my position on the bike and capped it off with the day’s fastest run.” Tim and Markus relied on the no-compromise race suit All Out Speed Suit. TOP 3 men: 1. Timothy O’Donnell (USA) 3:47:40 (new course record) 2. Nils Frommhold (GER) 3:52:57 3. Markus Liebelt (GER) 3:53:27 Enjoy a race gallery from Poland.

Ironman Austria in images

The 20th edition of Ironman Austria (Klagenfurt) was held in perfect long distance weather, not too hot and a light breeze. Starting the race it was clear that Pewag Racing Team athletes were willing to take an offensive approach. Two of them – Beatrice Weiß and Lukasz Wojt – lead the race for some time. The latter almost until the end of the bike leg and finally finished 6th overall. Russian Ivan Tutukin was catching up (fastest marathon of the day, 2:40h) and almost caught winner Michael Weiss.
