They have barely filmed anyone except the male leader and the announcers.
2nd and 3rd are like 20 seconds apart and we can’t get a shot of either… so frustrating
Yeah exactly. I like Lionel and hope he gets 2nd. We will see soon enough.
LIONEL! Awesome

Yes good run. Will be eagerly awaiting his youtube recap.
Blummenfelt never in doubt. Looked great through the finish line.
Great finish for Sanders. The strategy works…even if the reward is in the last kilometre!

It never ceases to amaze me that Lionel is running 6:12 pace. His running form/ body language looks so much slower.

such a great race - watched it all morning while on the bike and treadmill
Blu is a beast - Norwegian hype train is real
too bad Iden wasn’t ready to go
Lionel raced fantastically - the way he grinds to the finish is amazing
Great job to Currie - I thought he was toast at that last climb - he hung on much longer - great heart
so many from that lead group on the bike in the top 10

Somehow Kat is holding off Anne 
Yeah, he looks like he’s just hemorrhaging energy with that running form. Curious what his economy is at that pace.
My buddy is out there battling for a podium…4 miles to go. Now, it is an older AG, but still a podium spot.
Shows how freakin’ fast the pros are…they have been done for hours and there are still AG’ers out ther battling for podiums.

Currie deserves a lot of credit, I think. Found himself way off the front in a way he didn’t expect, he knew with more than a half marathon to go he couldn’t win, and absolutely gave his all trying to hold on for second. It would have been so easy to submit.

The weirdest part is he comes from a running background! R
Biggest takeaway is that I was right about Ryf and am much smarter than all of Slowtwitch.
Fantastic efforts by Lionel and Kat Matthews too, they’ve both improved a ton over the last year. I’m
Stoked to see Currie holding on as well… he’s had a great season and I think he’ll be one to watch out for. Going to be some surprises when the Aus/NZ folk get back into the mix.

Four Brits in the top ten women even without LCB shows the depth of talent we have at the moment, McNamee ran into the mens top ten which was no mean feat - with AB and Skipper I’m hoping they can take a podium spot too in Kona later in the year. If either can take a win it will be a real shot in the arm for the sport nationally as we’ve lost Olympic gold to Norway.
And for those who didn’t watch:
I’m wondering what the TR crew made of it all.

Good race and amazing splits. Terrible coverage and commentators.

Honestly, is this position that bad?
Now the bike is hideous imo, but not sure about the uproar over his position.

For pro who just won the IMWC? Absolutely.
The results speak for themselves, obviously, and you can’t really argue with them, but he is just bludgeoning the air into submission in that position.
And I wouldn’t call it an “uproar”…just an observation.
