well, it came true but not as exactly predicted. Larsen expected to do the 3:50. Not a true test of Larsen at Hawaii though as he was only running to avoid injury. Dissecting this would be easier if the splits were available.

Amazing race by Bell, another person to put into the "gotta watch" category in Hawaii this year. Should be a great race.

Last time I heard a big time prediction was Roth 1996...Rainer Muller's wife had put a sticker with
7h57' on his bike...

he got off the bike with Lothar who did the 7h57'

Luke Bell is an amazing triathlete. no weaknesses, young. provided he stays healthy, he is going to be a kona threat
