Sex difference in top performers from Ironman to double deca iron ultra-triathlon In recent years, women on the Ironman track ensured for a stir on the Ironman route by riding certain athletes very far in the field in the field or even come from the water at the top. It asked if the women slowly run the men on the Ironman track and whether they could chuck the men on the longer triathlon routes.For this purpose, the times of the best men and women from 1978 to 2013 have examined for all routes from Ironman to the twenty-five Ironman track.Not entirely unexpectedly the fastest men were more and faster than the fastest women, except on the floating route about the fivefold Ironmandistanz. If one forms a correlation between the difference of the sexes and the power, the gender difference increases with increasing route length for swimming, running and total time, but not when cycling.
Although the difference between man and woman on the Ironman track became smaller than the year, he took to the longer routes. Since the decrease in the difference on the Ironman track is not linear, it can be assumed that women can no longer approach men in the near future.It also sees that the performance due to non-linear course is no further improvement due to the iron mixer.
