Kona watching thread (Page 5)

Brian 9:40 is crazy!!!  And what I find unbelievable is the guy ran a 3:26 marathon and lost 31 spots to the field.  Some unbelievable athletes down there!

(IM site has him as 9:40:28 official)

Bryan was 166 overall--AMAZING!

Bryan talked the talk and walked the walk, nice to see someone back up there talk every so often

Looks like Josh is in off the bike!  Woohoo!

How awesome is watching this live on-line?!!!

My wife and I are glued to our computer and can't stop watching the finishers! How about the proposal?

Too cool.

Also loved watching Laurent Jalabert, the very excellent retied pro bike racer (KOM at the TDF more than once) who was 1145 place after the swim and 105 place after the bike and finished 76 overall. What an athlete.

These people are awesome!

Great stuff!

You're so right, I could quite crack cocaine easier than turning off the feed.  Tears have welded up a few times already, can't wait for the 17th hour....

Awesome Day everyone.  Now time for Josh to keep going strong.

Less than an hour to go. 1646 have finished. How many are still out there? I heard them say less than 1700 started and some were cut off at the end of the bike.

I wonder how many are still on the course?

Here's a prayer for them to find the strength to make it in!

Go Ironmen!

Way to go Josh Berman!!  Just saw you come across Mr. Ironman!!

Was he one of the two that just finished?

Way To Go!!!!!!!!!

Great job Josh!

I feel emotionally drained from just following this all day. I cannot imagine what the athletes (Ironmen!) must feel like.

I am truly inspired!

Amazing!

Congratulations to all of the Kona IM BTers!  Great job today!  I enjoyed watching all of you.  Very emotional for us; I can't imagine how it was for you.
