Kona 'live' video - available all week?	Can't Post

In previous years I've watched the 'live' video coverage several weeks after the fact.
I believe it was recorded and streamed on demand on a non-ironman.com affiliated server.
I won't be able to watch it live again this year. Does anyone know if/where the video will be available?
Perhaps someone could get something going for all of us who can't watch it live?
Anywone have any ideas??

The way in which streaming video is shown, live on race day, and on-demand streaming is slightly different. Usually it tends to be posted in a few days/weeks. I'm pretty sure you can still access the previous years races on ironman.com. I haven't checked, but in the past I've watched races long after the fact.

Here are some links to the Ironman Hawaii live coverage/webcast from the past four years:

2005 Ironman coverage: http://ironman.com/...hip/2005-kona-videos

2006 Ironman coverage: http://ironman.com/...hip/2006-kona-videos

2007 Ironman coverage: http://ironman.edgeboss.net/...nman/rebroadcast.wvx

2008 Ironman coverage: http://ironman.edgeboss.net/...008/kona/webcast.wvx

Last time I checked, all of these were still "live" and you can still stream them in your favorite media player.

I sure wish they would have done that for IMWI 2008. :(
