Challenge Peguera Mallorca Oct 14th, 2023

There's quite a field in one of the races taking place today.

70.3 world champ Rico Bogen started the run in second place, just ahead of Mathis Margirier (who had been pulling him on the bike in said 70.3 world championship before finishing just outside the podium).

Then: former participant of Olympic Games Alistair Brownlee, winner of Challenge Barcelona Yuiri Keulen, three-time IM 70.3 podium finisher this year (and two-time winner - both times in Poland, of all places) Wilhelm Hirsch and of course Freddy Funk.

To see the women's standings, you have to enter "ProF" in the CAT column to see that Lucy Buckingham nee Hall is leading ahead of Imogen Simmonds and two Madsens,

As it sometimes is the case with the Challenge Family races, great venues are accompanied by shit trackers.

Five men into T2 together (all FP swimmers). Keulen with a sub 1:10 run grabbed another excellent win ahead of Margirier (NB PTO #7 and #4 at Lahti). Brownlee a distant #3 (+>4 mins cf sprint finish with Keulen 7 days ago) and Funk #6 (+>6 mins, dropped off bike pack - unusual). Bogen DNF (after 8km of run).

Simmonds gained a minute on Madsen L on the run and but lost a lot in last few km. Buckingham good bike, T2 with Simmonds, but looks to have DNF'd. Madsen SL with Simmonds and Buckingham into T2 but has lost several minutes and overtaken by Diederiks for 3rd in the last few km.

Looks like the post championship interview circuit claims another victim in Bogen

Didn't Rico take a tumble going into T2 and he retired with a DNF from the injury of coming off his bike?
