Great race, great video, great coverage, great to see this here. The race was the first world class field ever at the distance to later become known as Olympic distance (1.5-40-10). Lance was a couple weeks short of his 16th birthday. Super on the swim and bike (he tells Pigg to f-off in the video lol!!). Faded on the run to 11th (would have been around 16th-18th, if not for the disqualifications). See his running form here at 5:00 (yikes!!). That won't do at Kona for 42.2k.
Yep phil's been doing commentary a long time used to and I think recently even is on nbc ironman coverage as does trautwig... they've been at it quite a while.
It must be weird, even for him, commenting a 15 year old wonderboy competing at adult level triathlon and then, 15 years later, congratulating him as a multiple winner of the Tour De france
hahahaha!!!! look where the shifters are!! ALUMINUM BIKES? lol, look at the aero bars at 1:53.

I wonder what ever happened to the Armstrong kid. I've done some google searches on him. Can't find anything. He must have burned out. Anyone know?

Go easy on Mike Pigg ... he's a nice guy. I met him once. Its the heat and stress of the race, that makes tempers flare.
