Yeah - a shitload of people beat me at Kona. What was your finish time?

They will try and keep the current system and open Kona to more slots, as per Messicks interview where he said that is the goal. Then they might consider a point system which would simply reward people who do a lot of their races.

I don't have a finish time, still waiting for my lottery slot.

When I get that spot, I still won't brag about doing Kona as much as you do...

Thanks for your thoughtful input on this topic.

You're welcome.

Hit me up next time you want to whine about us mere mortals taking up your Kona space...
