Hey Iron Geeks... TIME FOR KONA!!!
To disable ads, please log-in.
Of course I'm going to be driving to san diego tomorrow as I'm racing sunday, but hope to pick up some of the race on ironmanlive.com from the room.
Only know two people racing this year.
Our own (phoenix's own that is) lottery winner Valerie Rottman, bib # 1000
and Molly Zahr from TNO, bib # 1763
Anyway, if you want to see a really funny (and CUTE) pic of Michael Lovato in his skivies, check out this thread...

So if you are around tomorrow (sat) check in on Ironmanlive.com and catch the Kona vibe!
Oh- and GO MACCA!!!!!!!
I hope he KICKS STADLERS BUTT! Actually I don't care who does it, but that overblown ego needs to be deflated!! And Macca is SO FREAKIN CUTE!!

I KNOW!!! I'm so excited!!
He won't win, but I'm pulling for former professional cyclist Laurent Jalabert (I'm a big TDF geek, too). He won a slot to Kona at IM Zurich in June, where he placed 21st OA in 9:24:29. Impressive. He does IM's for fun and pleasure. Gotta love it. A pro cyclist turned triathlete (and a good one, at that).
Have fun watching, ladies!!!
And good luck racing tomorrow, RM!Check out my running blog: www.turtlepacing.blogspot.com

I was competing in my own Tri that morning so I came into the coverage after most of the pros had finished! >_<
CRAIG ALEXANDER GOT 2nd! WOOHOO!!!
I was sad about Sister Madonna missing out on the ride by 30seconds! (She's got the same name as me! As soon as I saw it I was following her)
the Rebecca and Rebbekah from Australia did well to place 5th ant 6th!
Good on em!
