Kona Picks

In a valient effort to procrastinate from doing anything at all productive tonight, I have formulated my picks for Ironman Hawaii. Our Tri club is having a little contest, with socks and a waterbottle up for grabs. Plus the sweet sweet glory of the win!
Here it goes:

Men:
1. Chris McCormack - 8:26
2. Cameron Brown
3. Faris Al Sultan

To be honest the mens race is not as interesting to me as the ladies. I think Faris is strangely hot in his little man speedo. I dont really have anyone that I am clearly rooting for. I hate to say it, but I dont really want Normann Stadler to win, after the scene from last year. The winner cant have temper tantrums.

Ladies:
1. Michellie Jones - 9:21
2. Natasha Badmann
3. Lisa Bentley

Well, the ladies are more exciting to me. Michellie totally rocks the pink, so how could I not cheer for that? I love Lisa Bentley. She just seems to be a really awesome gal, and is super talented. I wish I could say she would win, but there are too many fast ladies. I will also be rooting for Lori Bowden. Dont ever say I dont have Canadian pride! There are actually alot of women I want to do well, they are are pretty inspiring, such as Belinda Granger, Desiree Ficker, etc. Goo Ladies.

I am pretty excited to watch the coverage on Sat. I have been checking out a few blogs with pictures and info. It is definately something I would like to go watch someday soon...like when I am no longer in school! I have a run/gym and studying on the agenda for Sat, so I should be able to keep up with the coverage.


From the TriDubai Website...Dont they look FAST?!

I would say I have quite sucessfully avoided studying tonight, haha!
