At his tenth attempt (in a run that has included four runner-up spot) Lee Priest finally took the Ironman Pro Invitational title. Finishing behind him was David Henry, with Troy Alves third. Boos rang out at the placings of both Kris Dim in fourth and Mark Dugdale fifth. For what reasons? Go figure?
The top three qualify for the 2006 Mr. Olympia contest on September 30.
