OK - I will admit that Marquardt is holding it together better than expected. He looked like a wreck, but he still runs - well done!!

I’d wager Skipper will podium or be very close.
I think top 3 is within reach. And if Kallin and Marquardt have.... oh crap. Kallin (Edit to correct) just crashed for no reason. Looks like he might have taken out or almost taken out an age grouper who was behind him. Looks like he just got a bit floppy riding out of the saddle and torqued his foot out of the pedal.
I think it's 4 for the podium: Marquardt, Mignon, Lange and Skipper, with the question mark on Hernandez running his first IM (he's wicked fast in 70.3) and I don't think Kallin is going to be a factor, even less after his fall.
Kallin crash totally 'him': no other rider cause.
Agree that looks like the top 4, in your order you gave. Rodriquez has some good 1:09/1:10s early last year but Campeche and Oceanside not promising for a fast full (and first IM). If sensible he runs it in to get a Kona slot (first ?8).
Edit: Superb bike time from Marquardt!

WPro starting to look quite interesting. Langridge is better runner than Wilms. McCauley, Berry, Slater and Alberts pretty even, similar to Wilms.

I think I got it right Wilms vs Fenella :)

What’s the slot situation for the men here? Can’t believe they haven’t mentioned.

Rodriguez Hernandez, Mignon, Kallin, Schuster, Hanson and Koolhaas should get them

Dont think he cares about place at this point, he is running for time behind leader. And funny thing is when he runs, he doesnt look bad. Greg keeps saying he must have cramps, but I dont see any sign of cramps, no stretching or what not when you have them..I think it is just a heat issue..So now he just keeps going as well as he can and limit the loss of bonus points..Places dont matter..

It's a Mortal Move. Not enough carbs and maybe their electrolytes caused cramps. //slight sarcasm

Indeed, i do not see him anymore then Pole Szala would get the Kona spot (the third Pole fo the year !)

i tried to get the points for the rankings but it is very unofficial as i am not great at maths !

1- Lange 4 903 +1 615 =6 518
2- Hanson 4 174 + 1 710= 5 884
3- Leiferman 4 025+ 1 823= 5 848
4- Hernandez 5 000 + 582 = 5 582
5- Lopez 3 586 + 1 659= 5 245
6- Mignon 4 661

Congrats to Penny!

I feel for Joe. He just has not been able to put it together the last couple years. I wonder what it will take to finally hire a coach.

Yes and then gained circa 3:45 back on everyone in the second half of the bike.
Very good run by Slater to get #2. PTO score earned jumps her from #54 to about #38 (by my reckoning).
And Wilms in #3 jumps up more than 10 places too.

he's flying, at this pace he'd win with 5 mins plus on anyone!
Well not quite (after a serious Lange push) but a great win.
Rodriguez said he flew the first two laps and survived the last one. Aims for a 2:28 next time: with a negative split if he has sense.
PTO points will lift him from #57 to mid thirties.
