Ironman World Championship Coverage

It's on NBC this weekend!! It's my chance to plop on the couch with a ton of crappy food and watch amazingly fit people for 1.5 hours. It's going to be aired this Saturday (Dec 19th) from 3:30 - 5:00 pm central time (or 4:30 - 6 eastern). I've invited everyone from the CVA Triathlon Club to come watch it, so hopefully I'll be watching with a small group. Anyone else want to come over?...

Here's a little teaser video to wet your tongue:

If you haven't put your name in the hat for the 2 Sugoi Tri Suits and all the Gu goodies, make sure to scroll down to the post from 2 days ago and sign up!

And seriously, any locals want to come over and watch the IM coverage? I'll be on the couch with a few of my tri club students...

  6. I fall into the category of "sickos" who intermittently watched the entire race on my computer back in October.

  7. I was there on business and got the chance to watch the race. It was amazing to be there for the actual event, but I love the show they are able to put together. The human interest stories they find are inspiring.

  9. Greenking17: I can't comment on your blog, so shoot me an e-mail. You can find it under "Contact Steve" at the top of my blog.

    And Borsch, you should TOTALLY stop over! I sent the preview vid to my tri club students yesterday, and I pointed out Rudy in it at 0:59-1:00. So cool!

  11. Why does it seem like most of the slow-mo "action" shots in the promo involve spraying or dousing yourself with water?
