Kona 2025 IM World Championship Race Day Thread

Wow!

Then a full foot down stop for special needs.

LOL only for Knibby to do Knibb things and stop at special needs lol.

(I know why she stopped smart, just kinda funny)

Just lost half of it at special needs..

To be fair, better to make sure to get the nutrition after all she lost early on.

Headwind on the way back…

Will Lucy try to catch and hold her wheel when Taylor catches?

It’s TK, she can’t do transitions, aid stations or special needs to save her life. How is a short course athlete so horrific at those type of tactical elements.

Yes, but it might pay off at 32 km on the run.

Has LCB overbiked?

Welchy…. calm the fuck down

Sodaro DNF, very surprising!

Seems like kat and Laura are too concerned with each other not realizing the race is up the road

Who is this person w the microphone?

take the mic away from Her!!!

she is cheering for athletes?

saying “she looks composed” “she has a plan”.

Enough!!!

Again, massive effort by Knibb, everybody else lost even more. Philipp, Perterer and Kat 10 mins back. 2.30 behind Lovseth.

Fenella Langridge. Send help.

if they can keep gap around 8 minutes it is far from over. but if gets to like 12 then going to take a course record run to win it probably

Feels like Holly deserves a shout-out showing up so far

I feel like Sodaro caught lightning in a bottle the first time she won Kona. She’s struggled to regain that form, but that form has become her expectation for herself, and she struggles to push through when she doesn’t have it.
