alltom1 - 2008-08-17 11:20 PM Even though this isn't on TV, coverage is still excellent..Much better than I remember in Athens.

This is cool! I've never gotten to watch an entire triathlon Just bits and pieces.

last lap still 19 on the lead pack. I think it is going to be a shootout bewteen Vanesa and Snowsill, both look strong!

Is Bennett able to run like those two??? A couple of the kiwis have hung onto Snowsill in run contests in the past...  

I don't think so, prob she can go for 3rd place but then again you never know!

/agree

 

And the professional editing is done, because this will be fed to national outlets who will add their own color commentators for a later broadcast.

I'm loving this coverage.  No commentary, no human interest stories...just the race coverage.  It's brilliant coverage.

"Pro triathletes take their feet out of the shoes while still pedaling and then dismount while still moving forward, like rodeo cowboys."

 

Didn't realize cowboys took their boots off to get off the horses...lol
