SUB7SUB8
A unique moment in the history of sporting endeavour, and a landmark in the progression of human physical achievement. The Sub7Sub8 Project pitted four of the world’s best endurance athletes against each other and the clock, as they set about breaking the mythical seven- and eight-hour barriers for the brutal full distance triathlon in Germany on June 5th, 2022.

How it Played Out
The Swim
Sub8: World number four Kat Matthews was a surprising leader after the 3.8km swim.
Sub7: The Olympic and World Champion Kristian Blummenfelt showed his class in the water.
The Bike
Sub8: This time it was veteran Nicola Spirig’s turn to shine with a blistering bike leg.
Sub7: Joe Skipper had a huge deficit to make up. He did all that, and more.
The Run
Two extremely close races, and two chances to be the fastest there ever will be. Who took them, and who missed their chance? Watch the live stream below.
