Another endurance sports video! I recently watch a triathlon documentary/film - What it Takes. The film follows four top professional Ironman triathletes (Peter Reid, Lori Bowden, Heather Fuhr, and Luke Bell) for a complete season as they work their way towards the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii.

Thoughts on the Hawaii Ironman Coverage

I was able to watch most of the Hawaii Ironman coverage on Saturday and thought the pro race coverage was decent. I always would love to see more but that is what the live Internet coverage is for. The NBC show is created for a much greater audience than just a small percentage of endurance […]

Ironman World Championships Appetizer

Here is a bit of a glamorous taste of triathlon’s 2007 Ironman World Championships NBC replay coverage on tomorrow from the event last October. Not quite all glamor though, there was a nice puke shot of Normann Stadler.
