The start list for the women’s IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Marbella has been released, with three-time winner Taylor Knibb wearing the #1 bib, provided she recovers in time from her recent Kona exertions.
Taylor Knibb, the winner of the last three years, tops the start list, but her participation is uncertain due to her recent performance in the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona, where she came to a standstill during the run due to the heat and humidity.
Knibb could only sit on the roadside and watch helplessly as Norway’s Solveig Løvseth ran past on her way to victory.
Other notable athletes, such as Britain’s Lucy Charles-Barclay, also face uncertainty in their participation due to their recent performances.
The women’s IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship will take place in Marbella on Saturday, 8th November.
