The pros also affect the horrendous prices in Hawaii. Laura Philipp hopes for victory – and especially for difficult conditions for herself and the competition in the race. That’s the only way she can attack.
Er is back. After a three-year Corona break, the Ironman returns to Hawaii. The World Championships, the pinnacle of triathlon. In May there was a World Championships in St. George, Utah, but that was a “WM” in quotes, the true champions are crowned in Hawaii. That’s why it was a hard blow for Laura Philipp from Heidelberg when she missed the appointment in St. George due to a corona infection, but then she set her sights on the larger goal and prepared in Hawaii for the race that was taking place will start this Thursday.
At the time there was a discussion as to whether it might not be a bad idea to make the Ironman World Championship mobile, not always in Hawaii, but to hold it here and there around the world. But Ironman without Hawaii? What can you say about that now that you’re back?
