Garcia went 9:34:58 in Kona and 2:58:12 in Maui, which was good enough for third place in the 40-44 division. His combined time was 12:33:10, more than 10-minutes faster than the runner-up, Adrien Pascal of France.

Knape finished IM in 11:54:56 and XTERRA in 3:53:31 for a combined time of 15:48:27, roughly 16-minutes quicker than Megan Arthur from Hamilton, New Zealand.

Both Garcia and Knape won a four-night stay at The Kapalua Villas so they can come back to Maui and defend their double crowns in 2020. There were 19 triathletes representing 10 countries who successfully completed the grueling challenge.  Here’s a look at their times:
