Note: The official start list is now out, and I have put up my predictions post: Ironman Texas 2014 (May 17th) – Predictions.
Update Apr 20th: I was pointed to a list of starters on the Ironman Texas website that also contains the Pros. (Thanks, Brenda!) I expect to see a few changes until the final Pro list is released, but it is a good starting point. I’ve added some additional information and updates from other sources.
I’ve asked around to figure out which Pros will be starting at IM Texas in mid-May. There isn’t an official start list yet as the Pro registration deadline is late April. Thanks to all those who responded, here is my „unofficial list“. (Please note that this information is not always „first hand“ so there may be some changes to the list.)
Any additional information is appreciated!
