Subject: RE: Easiest to Hardest IM?
I think there are too many variables to factor in to determine the easiest to hardest. I did look up the top 10 times for each course and here are the totals

IMFL 8:21-8:29
IMAZ 8:20-8:34
IMCD 8:23-8:46
IMLP 8:23-8:46
IMKY 8:33-9:02
IMWI 8:46-9:02
Kona 8:04-8:17

once again this doesn't tell the whole story, because for example Kona is bringing in the best of the best and pro's work all year long for that one race. IMKY has only had 2 races to draw data from. They are all can be the hardest or the easiest on a given day depending on the weather. FL and Kona could have very rough ocean swims with high winds, KY and AZ could be blazing hot, LP and WI you never know rain, cold wind. They are Ironman events they are only as easy as they play to your strengths.
