Have you checked out the new video on competitor? http://video.competitor.com/2010/06/triathlon/training-day-chris-mccormack/
Personally, I like Macca, but I know he rubs a lot of you the wrong way. I think he shoots it pretty straight in this video, and I like his open plea for some fast rides in Kona this year.
Also, what do you think about the all white UA tri top he is wearing in the end?
I’m having a problem wathcing this video…lots of dead time and hiccups…not sure if it’s my computer or some tech issues at competitor tv.
I’ve had the same problems watching their weekly tri-report as well, which looks as if it is well produced, just frastrating to watch.
Nice video, personally I like Macca and love his style, hope he wins in Kona again. On another note he looked a little thick for an elite tri guy, just saying
Nice video!
thats a good video. i think most triathletes that just see the nbc specials see this cocky macca, cause he appears that way in the specials. every other interview speaks differently tho
Also, what do you think about the all white UA tri top he is wearing in the end?
im guessing a new ironman kit. white would make him cooler slightly
You mean he looked like a healthy athlete;)

I’m a huge Macca fan, and I know he likes to scan the “chats” so I’m writing this in the hopes that he reads it-
You’ve let Craig Alexander into your head. “If you want to beat that guy, you need to make him work on the bike.” You claim in that video that you feel that the athletes are too sensitive so hopefully you won’t let pride cloud the fact that you’ve let Crowie affect your mentality and just flush all that out and change your mentality.
In 2007, the bike was relatively easy for the top guys, and you put 3 minutes into Alexander! 3 minutes! Macca, you ran a 2:42! Do you know how many times Alexander has run a 2:42 in Kona??? Yeah, as many times as I have, never. But for one reason or another, you lost your mojo. I agree that in any other race in the world, if you get off the bike with Alexander, you’re probably going to lose. But you know better than anyone that Kona is different. I’d rather be the guy who did it than the guy who has to beat the guy who did it. If you and Alexander get off an easy bike together in Kona, all you have to do is something you’ve already done, the other has to do something he’s never done in his life to beat you.
There, now just follow the wheels and do what you did in 2007–lay down a 2:42 and if Crowie beats that, then God bless 'em.
he is one of the best. but its getting harder with every year, hope to see him win it this year.
pink> I used to be a big Macca fan until I watched the video. Then I saw that he is a heel striker. A true STer can’t like a heel striker <pink
Gotta love Macca… I have one of his S-Works from his 2008 fleet. Poor poor bike… to go from being ridden by a pro like Chris to a schlub like me…
It was cool to hear him talk about the different tactics used on different people. I really didn’t think it was that technical but he really seems to be a student of the game.
War Damn Macca!!!
I really like the video…but I’m biased…I went to Auburn…
He ran past my freshman dorm, past Haley Center, on Mell Street, same places I ran when I was there. Spidle Hall is where most of my classes were! So I loved that part of it! 
War Eagle! Macca, thanks for visiting the Loveliest Village on the Plains… we’re glad you liked it!
betting you didn’t get a Toomer’s Lemonade, kinda high in sugar, but definitely worth it occasionally!
It’s not your computer, mine does the same thing on this site. I love the idea, lots of good content here, just crappy execution.
