Triathlon Magazine Canada Highlights Butterfield
Bermuda’s Tyler Butterfield has been noted as one of “10 triathletes who have run super-fast marathons” by Triathlon Magazine Canada.
Their website said, “Earlier today we reported on Malindi Elmore’s 11th-place finish at the Boston Marathon, where she ran a 2:27:58. Which got us thinking about fast marathon times run by triathletes – is Elmore the fastest multisport athlete ever? Here’s a list of some of the fastest marathon times by those who have excelled at swim/ bike/ run racing that we could track down.
As it relates to Tyler Butterfield, they said, ‘The Bermudian Ironman champion set the Bermudian record for the marathon at the 2018 Commonwealth Games [2:26:29], but went much faster when he ran 2:21:47 at the Lake Biwa Mainichi Marathon in 2019.”
