Kona Update
Watching the live stream at IronmanLive. Crazy day at Kona so far. No clouds and no wind.
A flu bug has knocked out Norman Stadler and Faris Al Sultan. Both up puking all night.
Luke Bell and Cam Brown are out too for reasons unknown right now.
Chris McCormick ten minutes back from Torbjorn Sindballe leaving T2. Tim DeBoom is right there too. Macca last year almost overcame a ten minute deficet on Stadler and is hauling ass to take the lead. Both Macca and DeBoom are faster runners than Sindballe.
Natasha Badmann has hit a traffic cone, ripped up her shoulder grabbed a different bike and tried to continue but could not.
Michelle Jones dropped out from a perforated ear drum injury she sustained in SoCal a few weeks back, also where Stadler and Al Sutan got their flu bug.
There will definitely be a new womens champion today.
Tim DeBoom is the only man on the course who has won Kona.

I'm having problems with the live feed, but I did check on Coach Nick -- solid swim and some good biking under his belt!
I'm watching it too while eating my breakfast!
Being an aussie, I'm torn between Macca & Craig Alexander - the latter is a sleeper but definitely one to watch.
