Ironman Texas 2025: Age Group Stats and Qualification Times
We’ve seen some crazy fast Pro times at Ironman Texas this year, but how did the Age Groups fare? Texas is a championship race so a lot of qualification slots are on offer for Kona and Nice. This can draw a faster field but it’s also a large race, with over 2,000 competitors, and at that size we tend to see a broader range of athletes. I’ve compared this year’s finisher distributions against…
Ironman Taiwan 2025: Age Group Stats and Qualification Times
Ironman Taiwan is next in the Ironman calendar. It’s been an inconsistent race with a number of years missed since it started back in 2015. This year’s event went ahead with 65 qualification slots for men (Nice) and 35 for women (Kona). So a slightly lower allocation of Kona slots than many other races. Taiwan is one of the slowest races on the calendar, this year doesn’t change that but gets a…
Ironman South Africa 2025: Age Group Stats and Qualification
Our second Ironman of the year is South Africa, the African Championship race (and only full Ironman in the region). As a championship event it gets more slots which combined with its relatively small size makes it a favourable destination for qualification. Although you should factor in its unpredictability, the swim has been cancelled or shortened a number of times. I’ve made comparisons with…
Ironman New Zealand 2025: Age Group Stats and Nice Qualification
Two weeks ago the first Ironman of 2025 took place in New Zealand. This is little late, but it’s been five years since I last reviewed race results and statistics. I’ve had to dust off and update some very old code to work with the changes made in that time. There’s a lot of relevant data in the links above, but this review allows for a deeper dive and comparison. I’m limiting all comparisons to…
Coach Cox 2025 Coaching Services: Updated Packages
Over the weekend I made significant updates to the coaching packages I offer. Enough to need explaining in more detail. This is going to be part description of the new packages, part reflection on my history as a coach and part thoughts on coaching as a business. I’ll try not to ramble. What’s Changing? I now offer 3 coaching packages: Peak, Build and Base. You can see their details on my…

Ironman Qualification: Analysing race results to pick a qualifier
Why does anyone come to this website? Statistically it’s to look at Ironman results, most likely to search for an athlete – themself or a competitor. Potentially to look for specific race statistics, determine how fast it is, what they might be able to do, what might qualify them for the Ironman World Champs. That was the motivation for analysing all these results when I started over a decade…
