What a day in Kona (2007) - IRONMAN.com

Contributed By TriFatlete | Published: Oct 17, 2007

There's one thing for sure from this day's coverage: No one could have predicted the events of this day here at the Ford Ironman World Championship. It was a day that saw some sort of a stomach virus take out both defending champions (Michellie Jones and Normann Stadler), the champion from two years ago (Faris Al-Sultan) and Cameron Brown; a run in with a road cone take out a six-time winner (Natascha Badmann); and a leg injury sideline Luke Bell. Joanna Lawn, for the second year in a row, was sick for much of the day, too.
