After tasting success with a debut win at Ironman Australia in 2002—where he would go on to win five straight times—Macca failed in the lava fields until 2005, when he changed his approach and finished with the fastest run of the day. He finished runner-up to Stadler by only 71 seconds the following year (’06) and went on to win in 2007 and again in 2010. Macca has broken eight hours on three occasions with times including 7:57:50, 7:56:13 and 7:54:22. Photo: Bob Kupbens/Competitive Image
