I don't think there will be many joggers in this race |

Barring the women who did Melbourne(the short swim really throws off their times), it looks like the women to watch will be Jodie Swallow, Erica Csomor, Sofie Goos and Mirjam Weerd. After those four women, there is a plethora of female pros to round out the top ten. Don’t be surprised if Amber puts up some good results:)
Athletes without an Ironman Result(that I could find at least)
1. Camilla Pedersen- Danish: 04:19:00 at 2013 IM 70.3 San Juan
2. Natascha Schmitt-German: 04:33:16 at 2013 IM 70.3 Mallorca
3. Daniela Sämmler-German: 4:35:05 at 2013 IM 70.3 Mallorca
4. Anja Beranek -German 04:35:45 at IM 70.3 Mallorca (Swam a 51:39 at 2012 IM Germany)
5. Susan Blatt –German- 04:42:53 at 2013 IM 70.3 Mallorca
6. Anna Halasz-Hungarian: 04:49:45 at 2013 IM 70.3 Mallorca
7. Maria Lemeseva-Russian: 5:02:24 at 2013 IM 70.3 Mallorca
Amazingly, almost all of these women raced Mallorca so there is some easy comparisons within this group... Camilla Pederson will be doing her first IM and could be a contender in the race as she has performed very well at the 70.3 distance.
Every time I see Jodie Swallow I think of this:
As always you can follow Amber at ironman.com's Live Coverage of the European Championships on July 7th.
