    What time did he do?

    14:04:48 Fair play to him.

    Bib#141 if you want to see his splits.

    Ah sure we'll forget about the :xx bit for her she looked like she'd suffered badly. The music shutting off didn't help.

    So David Condon best of the Irish. 2.59 run time savage. Anyone know were he hails from and were he qualified.

    He's from Galway. Has been living in the US a good while now. It's his second Kona. Last time he was pretty fast too and it was first IM - lottery entry. Not sure if he did a qualification race this year but will find out.

    She didn't accumulate enough KPR points this year to qualify

    Looks like this is how he qualified. I'm pretty sure that means he has only done 2 full distance races and both were in Kona. :cool:

    I knew this guy when he lived in Galway. To say he was the last person you'd think would do an Ironman is a understatement. Nice guy but a complete head case when younger. Left for the states around 10 years ago I'd say and seems to have completely changed his life around. Good to see.

    ordinary enough behaviour for an Ironman candidate, I'd say.

    It's damn hard not to like Crowie. Post race interview with him here

    McKenzies comments about him in this clip show what a genuine person he is
