From the ironman website.   It says Louisville is going to be broadcast.  I wish they would at least post a link saying it would not be available so people don' t go crazy looking for it.

Greg and Paula - Madison, WI 2005

Not in town to watch the race? Don’t worry … Team IronmanLive will keep you connected to all the action, all week long. The coverage, at select events, will encompass both live and on-demand video.

In 2007, the IronmanLive Team will bring you live video coverage at the following races:

Ford Ironman California 70.3

Ironman Australia

Ford Ironman Arizona

St. Croix Ironman 70.3 (Audio only)

Ford Ironman Coeur D'Alene

Ford Ironman Lake Placid

Ironman Germany

Ford Ironman Louisville

Ford Ironman Wisconsin

Ford Ironman Panama City

Ford Ironman World Championship*  (Kona, HI)

Ford Ironman World Championship 70.3*   (Clearwater, FL)

*As always, our production goes into high gear for the World Championship races.    You can expect "Tour De France" like coverage; our cameras will be right alongside the leaders, as well as high above the course.   Live commentary will keep you informed and up to date with all the action. 
These shows will start about an hour before the race, and continue until the midnight hour.    Make sure you tune in,  get comfortable, and keep the Gatorade and PowerBars handy!

Seems like they usually have it together for the start.  Maybe it's due to the change in the swim course?

Sounds like Tollakson is going for the LONG swim .... he's way out in the middle of the river it says ...... they had to send a boat out to re-direct him.

But it also sounds like the current is killer and they are basically being pushed along!

Two ladies are mixing it up with the pro men, Kraft and Sharpless.

According to this page, no live athlete tracking:

Real Time Athlete Tracking, the core product of Team Ironmanlive. Follow your athletes progress through the course, with split times, pace, transition, and position information. Our goal is to keep you connected to the race, from anywhere around the globe.

At the start of the race you will see a link for the Athlete Tracker under the coverage tab of the event on the home page of Ironman.com. You can also access the coverage by navigating to "Events", then choosing the race you are interested in. 

The following races will feature live athlete tracking on Ironman.com (More events might have live tracking -- check with Ironman.com closer to each event to confirm):

Just talked to Jess who is on site.  The announcers down there have been telling everyone to track their athletes by going to Ironmanlive.com.  And like many before me have said, the link to live tracking is not up - though it is up for IMCA.  I'm hoping they'll get it fixed before long.

How about that 44 min swim by Tollakson!!!   

Ok y'all try this one out....seemed to work for me....

Here's the IMCA track and athlete address:
