The Hawaiian Airlines Doublers



There were 22 pro and amateur men and women that raced at the Ironman World Championship in Kona last Saturday and are also competing in the XTERRA World Championship next Sunday.

Eneko Llanos is poised to become the first to win five straight Hawaiian Airlines Double awards.  Right now he's tied with Peter Reid with four-in-a-row.  Reid has a record six double titles with wins in 1998 (the first year of recognized competition), 2000, and 2002-2005.  While Llanos is the frontrunner, it's not a given as Michi Weiss is just a little more than seven minutes back.

In the women's pro double chase Julie Dibens looks golden, with more than 28 minutes between her and Samantha McGlone. The amateur men's race looks the most exciting, as five guys are within 10 minutes of each other, led by Slater Fletcher of California.  Here's a look at all the racers we know of competing in the 2010 Hawaiian Airlines Double competition along with their Ironman Hawaii World Championship time...
