Crewing again for Scott Beasley along with his parents Jack and June Anne, fiancée Karen and her son Zane here in beautiful Kailua-Kona Hawaii. Ultramanlive.com is the event website if you want to learn more about it.
Stage 1 starts early tomorrow morning at 6:30 with a 10k swim followed by 90 mile bike. Day 2 171.4 bike around east and north of Hawaii. Day 3 is a double marathon run. My responsibility is swim escort in a kayak as Scott swims the 6.2 mile course from the Kailua-Kona pier to Keauhou Bay. Conditions were good today, air temps. mid 80s, winds light. Looking forward to an awesome start. After the swim we will follow Scott's progress virtually until we meet up again Saturday at the end of stage 2.
If you're here on the Big Island be watchful for the competitors on the road this weekend, there are some outstanding entrants from all over the world supported by the Ultraman organization and each with their own personal crew assembled from friends and family to facilitate each athlete's successful completion of the race.
Hope to see you out there, a hui hou, see you on the road.
