It's race morning and the twitchy athletes are off to an early start. Send good wishes (speed, strength and only tailwind) to the racers this morning at the Ironman 70.3 Hawaii!

Beautiful sunny morning. The wind came up just as the swim started and they had to deal with a tough current :(

Athletes = 10 (they are in great spirits despite tough conditions)
Announcer = 1 (obviously has never done a triathlon in his life)
Shuttle Buses = -2 (not good planning AT ALL)

Everyone had a great race and was quite successful despite the heat and wind! It also gave me the opportunity to see the "other side" of racing as a supporter. It was a pretty long, hot day but everything was forgotten the moment I would see Ruth, Julie, Duncan or Karen!
I did get in a quick lift after it all and before some dinner.
