Does anyone think the announcers are forbidden from mentioning the PTO? They talk a lot about athletesā performances at IM-branded races but nothing about the PTO. Sodoro ran her way to the podium in Edmonton, if Iām not mistaken. It seems like it would be a relevant fact to mention. She also had a disappointing Collins Cup, which makes todayās result even more remarkable. I donāt think itās a coincidence that I havenāt heard mention of any non-IM race.
PTO has barely started to be a good actor and has YEARS of dogging Ironman all over social media. The Collins Cup Twitter account was just an angry old man yelling at clouds until Michael Moritz chose to fund the PTO. Then they made all the threats about Ironman selling and how they should be the ones to buy etc.
Now that is changing some. But let's not act like they're innocent.

No kidding, all this complaining is nauseating. I'm watching the race, and I see plenty of Sodaro leading the run. And im sure if the camera was on her all the time, the whiners would be saying lets see who the chasers are!!!
I would like to see Anne and a couple behind her a bit more, the tracker is so far behind that it is useless as to what is going on in the actual race..
Was able to choose the camera I wanted to watch on Ironman Now or watch 4/5 different feeds.
