Kona 2009 predictions

James recently asked me the hardest question there is this week. And in comparison I still have a merchant law exam in a couple hours time!

So here are my predictions for that little race happening in the other side of the World.

Lets start with the girls Top 5 first.

1. Chrissie Wellington (this is a no-brainer)
2. Mirinda Carfrae
3. Rebekah Keat
4. Catriona Morrison
5. Linsey Corbin

And boys side of things (Top 10)

1. Craig Alexander
2. Cameron Brown
3. Chris McCormack
4. Eneko Llanos
5. Terenzo Bozzone
6. Timo Bracht
7. Chris Lieto
8. Mathias Hecth
9. Normann Stadler
10. Luke McKenzie

The mens race isgoing to be an Ironwar threesome between Crowie, Cam Brown and Macca. After swimming and riding together (legally of course in the "main pack") Macca leaves T2 sprinting! leaving Crowie and Cam to catch back up. There's Philip Graves, Lieto, Llanos, Normann and Terenzo up the road battling it through the first 10miles when Macca zooms past shortly followed by Crowie and Cam. By Energy lab the 3 are together and the win is decided on Ali Drive! Places 6 to 15 are also decided in a mass sprint! This will be the most exciting race ever! U heard it hear first!
