Kansas 70.3

Good luck to TPR and Noda who are looking to set PRs at Ironman 70.3 Kansas tomorrow. They along with 2,000 others will join the professional field consisting of some of triathlon's top contenders. I am looking for Tommy to pass Chrissie Wellington on the bike while Noda should be right on Chris Lieto's tail throughout. I am going on record predicting that Andy Potts will finish before either Rosenthal or Noda get off the bike. The course will take participants throuout Lawrence and surrounding areas. Athletes will complete a 1.2-mile swim in Clinton Lake, a 56-mile bike throughout Douglas County and a 13.1-mile run on roads and trails within Clinton State Park.

Mike Pepper is a late scratch for this event as he decided to participate in the first annual Wellington Way Man event being held in his very own neighborhood.
