2015 Ironman Arizona Tempe, AZ / November 15, 2015 2.4m swim / 112m bike / 26.2m run
The men
Marko Albert led the pro men out of the water of the Tempe Town Lake in 47:06 and he was followed closely by defending champion Brent McMahon. Then there was a 2-minute gap to a group of seven that contained Joe Umphenour, Drew Scott, Andrew Starykowicz, TJ Tollakson, Kevin Colington, Miguel Angel Fidalgo, and Maik Twelsiek.
With Albert and McMahon up the road already Twelsiek hit the deck hard as he came out of the water, but the German quickly got on his bike while still bleeding from his elbow. Starykowicz meanwhile did not need much time to move in the limelight. By mile 9 of the bike he had erased the 2-minute swim disadvantage and was at the front of the race. Maik Twelsiek and TJ Tollakson also moved up and at mile 18.5 they were riding with McMahon and Albert, just about 1:30 behind the lone leader. Several minutes further behind, Lionel Sanders was serving notice and the hard riding Canadian was now only 4 minutes behind Albert after starting the bike segment about 7 minutes adrift. But McMahon started to drop away from the front with a flat tire, and Maik Twelsiek stopped to serve a penalty for drafting he received while fumbling with his bike shoes and bloody arm leaving T1. When Starykowicz reached 56 miles he was up 5:30 on Tollakson, 7:30 on Albert, and 8:00 on Sanders. But soon after, Sanders moved past Albert into third place and the Estonian seemed to be paying for that early hard effort. Twelsiek and Jordan Rapp were then riding in fourth and fifth position, but up front Starykowicz pulled even further away. At mile 93 he was 9:35 ahead of Tollakson and 10:56 in front of Sanders, and Twelsiek and Rapp were riding at 13:01 and 13:29 at that point. To no one’s surprise, Starky -with a race best 4:03:36 bike split - pulled into the bike-run transition 12:47 ahead of Tollakson and with 14:43 on Sanders and 14:48 on Twelsiek. Rapp reached T2 around a minute later and now the race for the title was on.
