Along what is commonly believed to be the second toughest course on the Ironman circuit, Joe Gambles (AUS) used his team-issue Trek Speed Concept to conserve the vital energy he would need to dominate the run. The SRAM Red R2C shifters and Bontrager Aeolus 9.0 wheels-equipped Speed Concept turned out to be the perfect choice as Gambles utilized the stored giddy-up to take the lead at mile 11 of the run. "To win in one of my biggest supporters’ backyard is absolute magic.” It was Trek/K-Swiss triathletes Chris Lieto (USA) and Julie Dibbens (UK) who swept the tops of the podiums at the Nautica Malibu Triathlon. Lieto took top honors in the Pro Classic division while his teammate Dibbens snapped the tape in the Women’s International competition.
Other notable finishes from Sunday were Trek/K-Swiss’ Paul Matthews (AUS) who used a record bike leg in the Subaru Ironman 70.3 Maskota to pull off a second place finish and Trek-sponsored Blake Becker’s (USA) fifth place finish in his hometown at the Wisconsin Ironman.
