RAYNARD!!!! Just cracked into the top ten....hopefully he feels well all day.

the veterans talking on imlive also say some pretty crazy things at times...that's what happens when
you try to fill 8h of racing ;-)

if lieto does not win, he'll do

Looks like Marino and Luke are working together as it looked like Marino waved him on

Is there a reason why Dibens & Lieto are not using the speedbox on their SCs? Concern over yaw angle issues with the big wing effect it has??

This is why I love Lieto-

If you're a runner and you wait for the run and you fail, no one sees it.

Lieto goes for it on the bike, and if he fails, everyone sees it.

Takes guts.

Sorry, too hard to get ST on the Android phone.

Just a feeling. I think some of the gals are starting to believe that they can beat her.

I'm heading back to T2. Hope I don't have a busy day in the penalty tent.

Julie used a draft box last year,so VERY odd to see her ride without it

So the live tracker says the girls are banking on Julie not even finishing the race...so lets show her 60% of the time. Hey how about the some footage of the race leader? No, your right just give a brief snipet of the men's leader and get right back to Julie.

When he said sit in with the group, I think he meant the fast biker group, hoping they would still have 5 minutes on the 2:45 guys. He believes he can run 2:50 if he saves energy. He tried to prove it at AZ last year by laying off the bike a bit, and he wore racing flats for the first time in an full Ironman. Although the run didn't pan out...

Damn....totally off topic but...Faris Al-Sultan is only 33?

agree

Yeah, why did I think he was older?

Alexander, Raelert, and Vanhoenacker all in the front group! Waht if they get off the bike together???

Because he won when he was like 27-28??

Live track says CA is having the ride of his life. Did he get a new bike or something?

I think it's the new kit ;)

can Alexander hold this pace and still bang out a sub 2:45 marathon? He's having a spectacular ride .... but this is a very different race for him tactically than his previous years in Kona

It's definitely the pointy helmet.

I say yes. I'd love to see what he can throw down when forced to, such as running side by side by side with Raelert and Vanhoenacker...
