Results IRONMAN African Championship 2021
After a two-year hiatus, Nelson Mandela Bay played host to the 16th IRONMAN African Championship event on Sunday, November 21.
The day saw PRO triathletes Maurice Clavel (DEU) and Ruth Astle (GBR) claim victory in a time of 07:30:30 and 08:28:52 respectively. Athletes kicked off the day with a shortened swim due to strong currents and choppy swim conditions. The 3.8km swim course was reduced to 1.9km for the PROs and 700m for the age-groupers. The water temperature reading was 19 degrees at the start of the swim.
