Pro Men racing at St George

All eyes are on the ‘Norwegian Hype Train’ as Iden (M1) looks to defend the title he earned in both 2019 and 2021, while compatriot Kristian Blummenfelt (M11) looks to secure his first middle-distance world title.

2021 runner up, Sam Long (M2) has geared the latter half of his 2022 season towards the St George showpiece having passed up the opportunity to race in Kona; will the added preparation pay off for the Big Unit?

Ben Kanute (M6) is the only other former podium dweller set to start in Utah, the American finished in second-place in 2017.

Other big names to lookout for include Danish starlet Magnus Ditlev (M8), Great Britain’s lone representative James Teagle (M49) and a plethora of USA talents including Eric Lagerstrom (M7), Rudy Von Berg (M15) and Matt Hanson (M16).

Additionally, there are a number of in-form athletes to consider. USA’s Trevor Foley (M36) won at IRONMAN 70.3 Waco as recently as October 16, Lagerstrom took victory at IRONMAN 70.3 Santa Cruz in early September and France’s Clemont Mignon (M24) tasted success at Gerardmer XL middle distance on September 3.
