I won't list the winners here, in case you want to watch on TV tonite, but here's a link for the final results listing.  Has breakdowns of all the splits.

Those pictures show a beautiful bike course- can't wait to see the whole race tonight on the TV - but I guess I'd be in last place while oogling at the vistas.

  • A question: Did I miss the 4am showing of this event??? I was going to tape it! I think the Olympics in prime time is only going to show highlights, not the whole thing. Man, am I bummed!!!

  • A factoid: Heard this on the radio today.... Triathlon is the second sweatiest sport in the Olympics, right behind mens singles tennis.

Have a wonderful (SWEATY) day, triathletes!

Laura, I checked all the listings and they are only televising the women's event tonite.  The mens event will be televised LIVE at 4 AM (EDT) tomorrow (26th) on MSNBC

its so true! with the heat and humidity, i looked like i'd run through a few too many sprinklers during my run yesterday!

i missed it too. we hauled up our tv from the basement to watch (it hasn't been plugged in since we bought our house in 2000!), but i forgot to set the alarm. have been watching the today show with highlights and things. loved the segment on moms this morning!

OK, so I haven't lost my mind... Not entirely at least....

No women's live broadcast, only men's.. well that's OK... I'll still tape it and watch the women's highlights tonight... (Much to the chagrin of my over-Olympic'ed husband, who is so sick and tired of me obsessing over the TdF and now this--we have only 1 TV in the house...!!!)  

Thanks for checking! LW

I am not getting my hopes up about watching the whole race tonight. I am sure NBC will butcher the race in to a ten minute summary! They probably have some more gymnastics to show

Hi All

Make sure you watch the full coverage if you get the chance - it was awesome. The BBC coverage was great and they showed the entire race. You have got to listen to the commenters at the close of the race - classic stuff!

I hope tomorrows mens race is as good - enjoy!

Hi again to all those I haven't spoken with for a while - been away and now I'm back!

Perhaps if anyone wants, I can do a 5 min synopsis of what happened - LOL!!!

There have been some great races/events at the whole event this year - I NEVER watch athletics but have been glued to the screen a few times:

Mens coxless 4's rowing
2 man kayaking (IIRC)
Womens 800m
Womens triathlon......

Ian - I couldn't believe it when I switched on the tv over breakfast (another day working from home....) and saw the women in the sea! I was even more amazed when they showed the entire race - its the first full tri I've ever seen on tv and is probably the first they've shown here!

The commentary team really talked up the sport, the athletes and the quality of the racing. I think it will have a big effect on tri in the UK, especially as we managed to get Julie to finish 6th! As running is my best sport, its refreshing to see the strong runners do the business instead of everybody talking about those damned cyclists all the time ; )

Go lads tomorrow!

I watched it live last night and yeah it was great. Felt really bad for the little aussie tho! All that hard work... Mind you that was a spectacular run by the Austrian (I think she was Austrian, European anyway) she was awesome! She gained 40sec a lap on the leader each lap (they did 3 on the run)!!! And at the end she didn't even look tired...

Me oneday I'm sure...

Yeah watched most of it, missed the swim but you don't see much except heads...

We had a kiwi in the race (i think she got about 15th or something) so that's why they showed it live. A bit of a shame the way that works, if a kiwi isn't in it they don't really air it.

Can't wait for the mens one, should be a goody. Looks bloody hot thought, pleased it's not me running around in that heat.
