Kona 2008 Underpants Run
By Komo
Loads of fun, very funny, not sure if any of you have seen Reservoir Dogs but if you have, check out Mr White and Mr Brown. Missing from this years run was Team Nice A55, not fair but there was some talent nonetheless ;)
So, after a jog of about 1km, it was followed by some aerobics and then off for another trot down Alii Drive before arriving back to the run start for a group photo. I guess there are not that many chances to run in your underpants and get away with it.
Considerably hotter today compared to yesterday, the sun is out, no cloud cover at all, very humid. The run was on at 8am and just walking produced sweat so it is going to be one tough slog for Captain and the other athletes come race day.
I've sussed out my rides for the day and today, it is going to be the Cervelo S3 2009 road bike, in Olympic Colours (Fabian Cancellara's) ride with Zippies on it if you don't mind.
Took some wicked pics of the bikes on show this morning, Faris' Canondale with the assymetric change rings running SRM is to die for. I took a few pics which I'll share around later, Norman's bike looks very tricked up too, the Scott Plasma 2, very very fast looking machine in the green colours.
Bye for now

Hi Komo,
Did you come across Matty Lewis in the undie run. The white man in the photo looks like his race prepared - is the Captian???. Seen some photos of the different bikes over there (on Matty Lewis blog site)- awesome looking they are. If you see my Uncle Dave (Scott bikes) say hello to him for me - can you mention his nephew needs a new bike. Enjoy the time over there - has it set the fire ablaze for "I must race Kona" Say hi to Captain for me and good luck - race hard and well. Janet's doing the Melbourne Marathon on Sunday so I will monitor Captain when we get home. Big Boy
Big Boy, yes, did bump into Matty a few times. He too is looking ready and primed to smash smash smash this place to pieces. His legs look like road maps there are that many veins showing. PHUK this is very very exciting. I cannot wait until tomorrow, this place rocks. The flame is burning red hot.
All the best for Janet tomorrow too, hope she kicks butt.
Dave Scott, have bumped into him several times ;) what a weapon, he looks ready to race at any time.

Those bumpy thingos, I have them just reading your blog - I'm excited for the Captain - must be in the blood - at my age considered better than sex!!!! Big Boy
