As a Clydesdale myself, I think it is only fair to bring back the division for men and women. #238 going for a sub 5:15 in CDA 70.3 June 21, 2026.
Rock n roll.

I would like Ironman to include Clydesdale and Athena divisions worldwide and the opportunity to qualify for the world Ironman championships in respective divisions

I weigh over 200 lbs on any given day and to compete with guys 1/3 to 1/4 of my weight gives me a huge disadvantage right off the bat. Please include a Clydesdale division..

It only seems right that the Clydesdale and Athena athletes compete within their like groups. USAT has done the right thing and WTC should do the same

This shouldn't even be a question. Clydesdale and Athena divisions are officially recognized by USAT, so WTC should recognize them too.

I would love to be able to participate one day and then hopefully another time without needing the special category. I'm working on it!

There is no good reason why this hasn't already happened. Just do it.

I've done 135+ triathlons including winning 5 Usat national champ titles as athena, I've been on team USA for Usat and competed itu as athena, I'm a member of Usat century club, I've qualified for Usat nationals at least 50 times all as athena... But I've only done 1 ironman event where I also qualified for Usat nationals .... Ironman used to respect all athletes...it would be great if it did again... I would do more of your events for sure....I'm a sponsored athlete and this would also look good for ironman and wtc

I hope you include these divisions. It is so great for me to see how I stack up with men my age and size.
