    Call me crazy, I have been called worse, but I hoping for Iron War II - Crowie Vs. Macca! And, I am hoping Macca wins....

    For the ladies, I give it to Carfrae in Wellington-free race.....

    This is gonna be the year of my fellow countryman... Marino Van Hoenacker! He planned his season very differenly this year and seems to be very strong and confident.

    Women... close race between Mirinda Carfrae and Linsey Corbin. Going with Corbin!

    Dark horse for the women: Jessica Jacobs.

    And x2 on hoping for Iron War II with a Macca win! Love Macca!

    Sitting here as the men have finished, and the women are still on course, Al looks pretty prescient!

    So much for my man, Macca. I expect he and Crowie will announce their retirements in the next 6 months, maybe sooner.

    Crazy watching the race yesterday. My picks could not have been more wrong on men's side. It seems like the regein on the old guys has come to an end...

    Dino, old in age or number of Kona appearances?

    One of the big stories:

    Farris in 5th (age 34)!

    Natasha in 6th (age 45)!!

    Each with 10+ Kona starts (probably a lot more)

    I will be 40 next year. Looking at Macca and Crowie, it looks like an end to the 40 year old World Champ. Hope I am wrong!
