2008 Olympic triathlon coverage

Looks like I was asleep at the switch. The women’s triathlon was night. However, you can still catch the men’s race tonight (Monday) at 7 p.m. West Coast and 10 p.m. East Coast. You can try and catch it streaming online at NBCOlympics.com, but if it’s anything like the coverage of the other events, it sucks. It ends up being a Etch-a-Sketch slideshow. Anyway, the men’s and women’s race venues are at the Ming Tomb Reservoir: a one lap swim, six-lap bike leg and a four-lap run course.
