Race preview will come out next week but this looks like a really exciting race for the 2nd stop in the IM Pro Series. Going to be interesting to see who will eventually try to compete in the series & who doesn't. I wish there was a way to indicate that on the start list. Obviously we'll see people stacking up multiple results in the series & we know who is contracted for other races. Oceanside had a good # of half distance specialists racing. Now the IM specialists get their turn. It could very well be 90 degrees on the run. Expecting the faster runners to shine but we'll see. Currie & Lewis are the top male/female doubling back from Oceanside. Hanson & Skipper both outran Currie there. Lots of firepower in both races. Like the depth in the women's race for this one.Thorsten's trirating predictions: https://www.trirating.com/...4-apr-27th-seedings/
As to <<who's aiming to "compete" in the series>>, I guess all the PTO top ranked 15 on the start list are likely contenders (though not McCauley 'cos Sundays).
