No race in 2021: Ironman moved again on Hawaii

The ITU Triathlon World Cup is an annual collection of triathlon races staged around the globe. The series is arranged by the International Triathlon Union (ITU), the world governing body of the sporting activity. Inaugurated in 1991, the world cup began as an attempt to develop a regular period under its administration in tandem with the ITU Triathlon World Championship race. Nevertheless, this indicated that there was a World Cup champ as well as a world champion. Complying with the 2008 collection the ITU reorganized its top level competitions and also developed the ITU World Triathlon Series, a series of races that was to be the follower of the World Championship. Meanwhile, the World Cup was delegated to come to be a 2nd rate collection, therefore the number of races worldwide Cup were reduced. Given that the reformat, points earned in World Cup auto racing are currently used just to a professional athlete's World Position.

After 2020, there will be no Ironman in Hawaii this year. The legendary competition, at the same time the World Cup in the Triathlon, falls off again because of the Corona pandemic and is to be made up in February. This was announced by the organizer, which is now plans for 2022 with two competitions on Hawaii. One in February, a traditional appointment in October.

The resurgence of the virus and the new delta tribe has a significant impact on the island community Hawaii. In combination with significant border closures and travel restrictions for qualified athletes, there is no way carriable in October to align the Ironman World Cup, said Managing Director Andrew Messick.

Already in 2020, the traditional race was over 3.86 kilometers of swimming, 180.2 kilometers cycling and 42.2 kilometers run due to the pandemic had been postponed for a few months before it was finally canceled at the beginning of 2021.

Since 1978, the Ironman is held in Hawaii. The men last six times won and since 2014 only athletes from Germany, in the women triumphed at the last edition in October 2019 Anne Haug.

Of course I am very disappointed and hope that the World Cup can be held in February under good health conditions without risks for all, Haug said. Due to the current situation on the ground, the decision was absolutely comprehensible.
