On his blog Reid jokes that he “bombed” in Kona three times during his career. It is easy to forgot those years when he won the big dance on three separate occasions (’98, ’00, ’03), finished runner-up three times (’99, ’02, ’04) and took third once (’05). Reid captured two in-a-row at Canada (’00, ’01), three straight Australia titles (’97, ’98, ’99) and one in Austria (’99). He owns the third fastest time ever (7:51:56) and the fastest marathon (2:35:21). Photo: Lois Schwartz
