Chelsea Sodaro is Looking to Ride her Custom Ventum Tempus to Another IRONMAN World Title

Chelsea Sodaro burst onto the global triathlon scene in 2022 when she flew to her maiden IRONMAN world crown in Kona. She beat the likes of Lucy Charles-Barclay, Anne Haug and Daniela Ryf to take home the title, and although in the following years she failed to recreate that success, she was not a slouch by any means.
In 2023, Sodaro finished sixth in Kona. In 2024, she won 70.3 Tasmania and IRONMAN New Zealand and finished third at the IRONMAN worlds. This year, she has three podiums in four races (including a third at IRONMAN Sweden), so she looks ready to lay down another strong result at the world championship. She will be riding her Ventum Tempus in Kona. A fast bike split on that ride could be the difference-maker for Sodaro as she looks to run her way to another world title.
This is my favorite bike thus far.. The gold is fun and it just pops and thanks to NEAL HENDERSON this bike is built to perfection from an equipment standpoint. Everything is clean and her fit is spot on.
