    Well just over 6hrs to go now until the start of the ABU DHABI Tri. Best of luck to Jackyback and indeed the other Irish including Liam Dolan of course and Matt Molloy.

    the website is pretty crap but there should be a live video feed here

    Jackyback 119th after swim lap 1, and has been taking places at every checkpoint since, now in 81st overall after first bike lap. Looks like a solid enough swim.

    Would I be right in assuming it was a non wetsuit swim?

    Yip, it was the same last year. I wonder what Fran's mechanical was before the race....

    Despite taking a wrong turn Brownlee took the short course race.

    According to Tri24 it's "hot but not crazy hot".

    Molloy of GBR, 5th AG Male OA and 2nd in AG.

    Change "Timing Point" to bike lap 2

    and set to Age Grouper over all.

    Scroll through - you'll find him on second page

    Direct link. Couldn't get it myself for a while but then I thought of trying "Egan" rather than "Hobbit" :)

    You must be up the walls?

    Looks like 3rd to me.
    Kyle Buckingham 1st and Nick Baldwin 2nd.
    Not sure of the first guy but Baldwin is Sesel from tritalk/slowtwitch and has gone full time so expected. Won his AG in Vegas just gone also and Podium Kona AG'er so that looks right.

    Looks like Owen Martin is next Irish AG'er over the line.

    His AG is 40-44 now? He was 2nd if so just behind Matt Molloy!
    Very Very impressive stuff.

    LCD Biked 200km in 5:04 - just under the 40kph average!

    Looks like he was on for 3rd overall until last 5km so may have suffered in silly heat over there. Still - currently 6th overall as other waves start to finish.

    Great results.

    T2 - 37 MIN...

    Strange..

    Unreal race from Molloy, Dolan & Martin..

    Dolan must have suffered for the finish - but great race none the less.
