Coverage starts shortly at http://www.nbcolympics.com/triathlon/index.html if you are in the US.

Hope Vanessa Fernades does well and brings home Portugal's first gold medal.

Right now they're still doing introductions. FYI (to my fellow Canadians) it looks like CBC will show at least the start of the race on it's main TV channel too.

Interesting that they grouped them by country and not ranking, and that there's no No. 13 :)

CBC just said 500 volunteers worked on this course for 3 months to get it ready.

Every race director just threw something at the TV.

Live now....

The swim is underway... without wetsuits. A nice, long leg out to the first turn bouy has eliminated much of the scrum from a more bunched swim start. Nice looking conditions as we're 1:35 into the race...

I didn't realize online coverage was delayed. Weird. Glad I have it on HD with commentary :D

They mentioned a couple of women 'expected' to finish 1-2. Can someone tell me again who they are? Who are the dominant favourites here?

it's a little eerie with no stupid announcers and just the splashing of them swimming on the audio.
