Here's just one from Sunday at the Whistler leg of the Ironman Triathlon series

my girlfriend did the race for the first time and did awesome, super proud of her. but since the event is 17 hours long and you see the person you're cheering on for about 30 seconds in total, you have a lot of time to take pics.

i liked this one, thank god for weather sealing! it was pouring

Excellent photo. Sharp, colorful, intimate. I can see the rain drops, the tension in the hands, the tiny bit of motion blur in the leg. Great stuff!

These shots can be so tricky. This one is fantastic!

Thanks for the kind words, I have a few more to post but they are a bit more generic. I felt this one was a bit more emotionally involved for the viewer because you can see how uncomfortable the rider is. The conditions were extremely tough on Sunday

Good shot!
Man, those bars get so uncomfortable!
