With a brilliant performance this weekend in St. George, Sam Long put his name in the history books, as the American smashed the course record at IRONMAN 70.3 St. George.
Winning by a huge margin, the Boulder born pro will rise from PTO World #3 to PTO World #1 thanks to this result, which marked his fifth podium performance of the season.
Looking near unstoppable as he builds to the next T100 Triathlon World Tour in Miami, Long has already cemented his status as one of the stars of the season and will hope to keep the ball rolling at the San Francisco T100 next month.
