Frankfurt Ironman 2002, Part 2.

Here is the second set of photos, as promised. They were all taken by Bastiaan's brother, who managed to sometimes rather miraculously pick him out of the crowd (e.g. of blue hats at the end of the swim).

I'm afraid this slideshow is rather large (just under 500kb for all 11 photos), but hey, it took Bas 14 hours 2 minutes and 21 seconds to complete the race, so I'm sure you can manage to wait a few minutes if you've got a slow connection. As usual, wait for the first photo to appear before clicking through to ensure all the pictures load properly. Hover your mouse over the photo to see the caption.

- Sam.

Its over. Time for an intravenous drip I think.
Off into the night.
Its now dark, and Baastian passes his supporters part way through the 26.2 mile run.
Off for a 6 and a half hour cycle.
The start of the 112 mile bike section, with long sleeve jersey to keep off the sun (it was over 30C) and carry all the food.
Entering the transition area.
Out of the water, and about to grab food before grabbing the bike.
Where's Wally?
The start of the 2.4 mile swim from one end of the lake to the other.
The swim out to the start line, followed by some treading water, waiting for the start. A scary time.
An early start.
