Anne Haug takes Kona victory

Anne Haug today made it a German sweep of the top step of the Ironman World Championship podium, crossing the line in 8:40hrs to win her first Kona title after Jan Frodeno had scored victory in the men’s race. Haug would pass Britain’s Lucy Charles-Barclay halfway through the run to deny Britain a first Kona crown since 2012.
