IRONMAN 70.3 Staffordshire 2021 in pictures: Age-Group champions

The sun was out and the temperatures were up on Sunday for the sixth edition of IRONMAN 70.3 Staffordshire and now we bring you the age-group champions in pictures.

We highlighted the top five athletes overall for you on Sunday – headlined by Lydia Dant and Hugh Brashaw – and in this follow-up, we focus on the individual age-group champions.

Once again – and with great thanks to Huw Fairclough (www.huwfaircloughphotography.co.uk) / IRONMAN – we’ve got pictures from the awards collection post-race on Sunday. We’ve managed to track down almost all of the winners – but if you are one of the few we haven’t got, details are provided below on how you can help complete our gallery!

[NOTE – The images from Huw are available free of charge for personal use in print, social, editorial etc – you can find access to the extended gallery HERE. Please credit ‘Huw Fairclough for IRONMAN’]
