Which Age Group has the Fastest Aquabikers?
Research what age triathletes peak, and you’re likely to find men peak at around 26-27 and women 27-30 for Olympic distance, and both around 35 for Ironman. At many age-group triathlons, similar trends are seen with the winners often coming from these age categories.
But is aquabike the same? In theory, aquabikers should peak around the same time as triathletes, but in practice, is this what we’re seeing in age group aquabike racing?
The younger age categories don’t tend to be as full in aquabike racing as triathlon. But as the sport grows, is this changing? And are the younger athletes switching to swim-bike-done beating the more experienced, older athletes?
Let’s get into it.
