What time did the race start? If its 9:45 there, and if started at 7 with a 2:20 swim cut off, why are there still folks in T1. Maybe it was an 8 start?

They are in central time, very close to the eastern time border - its 8:45 there.

It's 8:46 there, they are Central time. Not far enough East to get into ET.

Okay, shows how dumb I am. I thought anything east of the sierras is east coast. :o)

Nah, not dumb.. they cut out a small chunk of Fla and made it central.. must be very fun to deal with locally. I'll see you at 8am Panama City time, 7am Tallahassee!

I was down there for the start this morning...very chilly...and a bit choppy out there for the swim.

I see Tissink didn't start, interesting...anyone know why?

It's funny. My perception of Florida is that it was always warm and sunny there !



It looks bloody freezing !!!

Damn, didn't know that.. this race is really Spencer's to lose now.

On the athlete tracker with no swim time - assuming he didn't start - did he make it to PCB?

Just got the feed up....have they shown anything other than folks jumping on their bikes leaving T1?

Any coverage of the pro race?

Thanks!

Konaby2008 out in a little over an hr, 2fast4U did ok in the swim as well for a first timer

Nah, that's about it.. same as IM Wisc. If they follow the Wisc pattern, you'll get a few still shots out on the bike course, then athletes dismounting bikes in T2, no shots beginning the run, then finishing shots.

Text updates usually give you a better feel for what is going on on the course

This isn't Florida, PCB is in FLA, F*&^*g Lower Alabama. Now back to my civil tongued self.

Other way around, 8am PC time is 9am TLH. I work in Pensacola, but my coworkers are all over FL. I just love it when someone schedules an 8:30a eastern conf call.

Why does quoting delete the post?

Anyway, what I was trying to say was putting on shoes in 46F weather is very different than 76F. Feet and hands are numb, shoes are stiff...

It is quite a contrast to watching Kona a couple of weeks ago. The 50% first timer stat for this race is amazing.

Lots of elitist sentiments on this thread. When will you guys learn?

Thanks :)

It's pretty boring right now, though. There isn't much exciting about an empty transition and port-a-potties.

I guess you could say it is a fair reflection of a typical spectator to our sport...

But you can find proper sweet tea just about everywhere in these parts.

Learn what? To have short memories? Do you forget saying this:
"No one is interested in seeing you attention-whore with your crotch-fruit. Cross the line, do your dance, but leave the fucking kids on the sidelines where they belong.

End of transmission."

Rumor from the Arnge peep page is that they took one person out of the water while performing CPR on him/her. Apparently only 5 total missed the cutoff.
