Yeppers, my brother the biker (as in bicycle) nees as high as 70% carbs most days. And he has a body fat of about 10% (wanna smack him most days).

I'm down around 3% body fat. Because of the volume and intensity of my training I need a lot of carbs. For the ironman your fueling plan (drinking and eating) is very important. Through the training your body learns how to absorb huge quantities of liquids and calories without (hopefully) having stomach discomfort.
