While m. lieto is entertaining, or at least moreso than greg welsh, does anyone else think that triathlon coverage would be much better with higher quality commentary?
think about anyone who watches mainstream sports or watches sportscenter. they would probably be amazed at the semi boring commentary they hear if they flip over to this amid a college football game. espn usually has ex-pro athletes doing the commentating, but they are much more professional and well spoken making it easy and helpful to listen to.
Good chance that Steffen could take the women's race. She ran 3:06 last year and has about 11 minutes on Wellington and 13 on Carfrae. Could be very close.
Last year, at least they said he was on a 2:35 pace before backing off. Maybe this year he's able to run that fast, because Raelert isn't that far behind, and there are other guys who CAN run, so he can blitz the first 15 miles and see where he is. I think he's in amazing fitness right now, and if he has the chance, why not go all out for it? History is historic, right?
Brent DFRU - Detta Family Racing Unit...the kids like it and we all get out and after it...gotta keep the fam involved!
So if Dibens can run, we have a very interesting race....if she can't run, we have an even more interesting race between Carfrae being around 12-14 min back of Steffen. Dibens is limping running around transition. She did have an amazing ride and right into T2 near Matty Reed!
