Great Ironman Florida results for all3sports
First of all, congrats to all the racers who competed and completed the race. We saw many old friends and made some new ones as well.
Cheers to Laura Sophiea, Kevin Moats, Lauren Cortjens, and Jeff Caplan.
Laura and Kevin came off of strong finishes at Kona World Championships to recover at Florida. Are you kidding?!? These guys dominated the course and both won their Age Groups in outstanding fashion. Kevin missed a sub 10 hour race time by only 6 seconds, at 10:00:05. Laura dominated her Age Group from the start, having the fastest swim, bike, and run in her division and finishing with a 10:27:25. This earns her another trip to Kona.
Some interesting facts on the race and these two athletes:
Out of 2423 participants -
| Laura | Kevin | |
| Placing Overall | 252 | 160 |
| Swim Placing Overall | 221 | 98 |
| Bike Placing Overall | 383 | 83 |
| Run Placing Overall | 332 | 296 |
Lauren and Jeff did some very fine racing of their own. Lauren’s first 140.6 distance race - 11:13:17, 9th in Age Group. Jeff almost PR’s this race, 12:22:09, after doing a PR at South Carolina Half.
Great job guys!
