I have huge respect for her taking the year off. She will be a better athlete for it.

8:30 am light headwind to Hawi....maybe 10 mph for now, but heating up.

She has it on her bike - that's not on Welchy. I assume she means it in a cheeky self deprecating way - no-one complained about Dr Tommy.

Maybe it's just a professional nickname like Dr. Dre, Dr. J, and Doc Rivers.

What helmet is McKenzie wearing?

General Question:

Anyone have any idea why Josh Cox's triathlon results are so slow? http://athlinks.com/racer/results/41201281

A pity there is no telemetry or a better way of showing pro positions as gets a bit confusing just relying on text updates and isolated bits of commentary.



Its the new Scott one IIRC.

Macca 2:10 down, riding by himself. Looks like he is toast.

Who is Josh Cox, other than commentating on this? Should he have faster results...although a 2h52 half-marathon and 1h07 10k is almost impossible to go that slow walking?

Well, that mystery has been solved, Angie Green looks great AND can read, her stock is rising!

LOL Chrissy just said she had no idea what her watts are and had never used a powermeter, so much for ST gospel.

Perhaps she'd go even faster if she embraced "science". Who knows?

Looks like a lot of drafting going on. Are they suppose to be 4 bike lengths back?

you work together with miss cleo?

New Scott, shown at Euro/Inter bike this year, I believe.

2:10 down at bike mile 30 doesn't sound too bad to me.

keeping tabs on Jacobs and proximity to Crowie. Right now 9 seconds behind Crowie. Would love to see them go head to head on the marathon

Might have been posted. Men who were on the right were pushed further right and ended up swimming into the paddle boarders by the first sighting buoy. It definitely had an impact on the early part of the swim...and maybe the rest. Most of the women seemed to start a bit more 'left' so didn't have the same issue.

yeah hasn't jacobs been working on his bike more? would be great to see him win.

ps bummer that cameron brown didn't start, from what I gather he was planning on this being his last hawaii and he wanted to go out on bang.

Yes I thought exactly that - still plenty of bike left though!

Oh, an ultrarunner. That explains why he's slow. :)

literally into the boards? did they get hung up momentarily?
