Results Breakdown: Ice Breaker 2021

Congrats to everyone who participated at Ice Breaker! It takes guts to show up to race, and we commend everyone who got after it Saturday in American Fork.


RaceTri's Ice Breaker (race #1 of the Utah Triathlon Championship Series) was a big success, with the weather cooperating and a great field of participants, spectators, and volunteers.

Next up in the Series! 

1) Mar 27:  Ice Breaker
2) May 1:  St. George 70.3 
3) May 22:  Sand Hollow - Olympic
5) Jun 12:  East Canyon - Olympic

*We're still waiting to get final confirmation on Daybreak from USTriSports, but the planned date we've been told is June 5th.

For Sand Hollow, Daybreak and East Canyon, there's also a Sprint distance option as a non-Championship Series race.


Below is the results breakdown for Ice Breaker, and this post explains what this is if you need a refresher. Some of the data was a little funky, (could have been some people missing a timing mat?) but we've done the best we could to break down the percentiles for each discipline as always.

In case you missed it, here are the Top 10 Reasons to Break the Ice !








“It is not the critic who counts; not the wo/man who points out how the strong wo/man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the wo/man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends her/himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if s/he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that her/his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” - Theodore Roosevelt
