Tom Ziebart is on Ironman right now covering St. Croix…just mentioned Slowtwitch…Great stuff…
Any clue why the swim splits at St. Croix are so much slower than wildflower - over a 4 minute difference in the top swims. Some pro splits over 30, including Peter V. at 33:58. Our own Farshad is in 50th after the swim, 2 in his AG. Hope he can nab a spot here. We all know his bike is vicious.
Swim was choppy - Fashad did not finish! Z
Z - IMLive results has him finishing in 4:50:

You been drinking some coladas?? 
I saw him at the finish line after the race and asked him how he did and he said not good - I thought that meant that he did not finish! I do have a rum and coke in my hand right now - have to get ready to the awards ceremony! Z
