Women in the archive

6,041 of 31,140 classified finishes across eleven editions — 19.4% — and the share is not the same in the three races, nor stable across the years.

The highest is the Triathlon M in 2026 at 32.5%. The furthest up an overall field any woman has finished is Daniela RYF, 6th overall in the Triathlon L in 2019.

2020 was cancelled. The axis starts at zero, so the height of a point is the share.

How many women finished

The count, not the share — the archive nearly doubled in size over the period, so the two move differently.

The fastest woman, every edition

With her place in the overall field, which is the number that says how far up she finished. These are mass-start races with one classification; the women’s classification is a cut of it, not a separate event.

“Median gap” is the women’s median finish minus the men’s, in the same race and edition. It is a gap between two medians, not between two comparable athletes: the fields differ in size, depth and age structure.

About this project and its data. The results are ChronoRace’s — the official timekeeper of the event. They were fetched once after the event and republished here with segment times, recomputed leaderboards and a page per athlete that the official results do not offer. The timing is their work; the analysis is mine, and any mistake in it is mine too. Course details come from Alpe d’Huez Triathlon, the organiser. Athletes who asked to be anonymous in the official results stay anonymous here.
