Subject: RE: Ironman Florida : Official ThreadJust watched the race on US at 6:00. It was cool watching the coverage of the event, but from my perspective disappointing. They really focused the majority of the coverage on the pros and whomever was in the top 5 for men and women during the race. There was very little coverage or even air time for the age groupers... even just general footage of the rest of the field during the race was really light. Almost no night-time coverage. Jen DiCarlo, great news for you though, as they highlighted your finish and called out your name on the screen and that you trained for the event while stationed in Iraq! Congrats! I hope you get a copy of the show. What sucked for me was that I finished 10 seconds ahead of you, and they just edited the coverage to cut me out... they could've left about 3 seconds of film in there to show me walking away from the finish line with my "catcher", who you can see his shoulder in the footage before Jen crossed the line... so bummed. Oh well, I know I was there! ![Cool Cool](../jscripts/tiny_mce3.3rc1/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-cool.gif) congrats again to all on this thread who finished! It's been an awesome experience and I'm very fortunate to have had your support! Thanks. Regards, Dave |
