Ironman age group underway in the 2008 Ironman World Championships.
Early morning light results in more colour when photographing with the sun behind. This is opposed to the 2 images above taken facing into the sun(nice effects though such as showing the early morning mood).

The winner of last years event, Chris McCormack is shown in the above photo going through the first transition.
He chose not to finish the race due to technical difficulties on the bike.
A cable involved in the gear changing broke and it would have taken up to 20mins to fix according to reports from those in Kona.

No time wasted here.

Drafting gaps in the age group race? The yellow markers in the foreground indicate a 2 meter gap.

Chrissy Wellington will become one of the all time greats in long distance triathlon if she keeps up this sort of dominant form for much longer.
