Asking cause they said Norman hasn't finished an IM since he won in 2006... Winners qualify for the next Kona, everyone else has to earn their slot. So what did Norman do to qualify this year then? Previous champions get a lifetime slot.... |

Has anyone gone sub-2:40 before?  Did a little research: Mark Allen did 2:40:04 in the '89 Iron War. Different run course. Mark has said that the old course was not as hard as today's. Not sure what makes it different but he has made this comments last year after Macca's run. |

| Expert 1288 Hatboro, PA | Subject: RE: Kona watching thread I think it is crazy that Chrissie is now less than 2 minutes behind, after losing the 10 minutes to the flat tire! She might even regain the lead before the run starts! That's insane! |
