Best list of American triathletes on the Ironman distance
The best list of American women triathletes on the Ironman distance includes all times that women from the USA worldwide in a triathlon over the long distance or Ironman distance (3.86 km swim, 180.2 km bike and 42.2 km run) were achieved. Each athlete is listed here with her personal best. (As of April 15, 2020)
Criteria for the best times
Times of amateurs and professionals under nine hours since October 1982 were taken into account. Competitions in which only one duathlon was held due to weather conditions or partial distances were greatly shortened are not taken into account.
An official measurement of the routes, as in athletics with the Jones counter , has not yet been done in triathlon. The races can only be compared to a limited extent or to a limited extent due to the fact that the length is not exactly precise. The times for one and the same competition, as in Hawaii, are not comparable due to route changes, construction sites, condition or change of the road surface, relocations and changes in the transition areas. The times listed here are results that have been achieved in competitions with an official slipstream ban.
The men's results can be found on the American Triathletes Leaderboard page on the Ironman Distance .
