Zürich is massive!!
You really can't imagine the size of this event. It is HUGE! Larger than life. Hundreds of stands in the expo village. You just get lost there, right now. Scott brought a road truck big enough to stash a U2 concert stage in, the Ironman Shop is about as big as a football field, and 2.500 volunteers are swarming out all over the place. I thoroughly enjoyed the press conference and the interviews afterwards. Got to mentio TRIWWW three or four times and got some good reactions to that. Tomorrow we'll check the local newspapers. I sure hope TRIWWW gets mentioned. And after the race, I hope to do an interview with Matthias Hechtel. I hope he wins. (But actually, they were all so incredible nice and friendly). My bike got delivered, by the way. Half-trashed, wheels total loss, shoes and box completely torn. Bring me the head of somebody at Lufthansa. Or Austrian.
The best lobster in town. A great restaurant, run by the most dedicated triathlete that I know.
