David Mullaney: Mr "Consistent Kona Man"

I have a buddy of mine who races Ironman XC at Kona. He's competed there with XC 5 times. I find his results amazingly consistent--especially given how variable the conditions are:

2009...43...10:49:56
2010...44...10:48:08
2011...45...10:41:14
2013...47...10:42:03
2014...48...10:48:39

for all I know he may be the most consistent Kona athlete of all time....

Plus he's a great guy!

To me, "XC" means cross country. What are you using it for in this context?

thanks for the question. I had seen Randy mention it before and always thought it had something to do with cross country. :) go figure.

the WTC website really left me with more questions than answers but this old thread helped explain it a bit more but i still don't quite understand the qualifying proceess... http://forum.slowtwitch.com/...e_of_things_P3001213

I can't top that but I have swum 1:04 and biked 5:03-5:05 three years, 2007, 2010, and 2012. Something about that race�.

Congrats ! Your's is super impressive in a higher plane for sure Bryan....I was just doing some of my end of the year analysis and was struck by how awesome David's consistency is....I'll state it here--no legit Kona guy has been as consistent over the last 6 years as him....
