Great Race Report from ST

This is a friend of mine who used to live in Chicago. Some interesting similarities to EN in his training and execution. He had a great season and a solid race at Kona!

  • Dude rocked it. Run splits were fantastic!

    Interesting: 400 cals/hour on the bike. Just sayin'.

    He was lucky that he recovered from having to back off on the cals.



     

  • It just amazes me sometimes on slowtwitch that the guy puts in a report that is obviously a huge personal best where he worked out alot of previous issues, and people just can't let it be that he had a good race and made good training decisions. The volume addicts are in there saying that he only did that well because of volume in previous years, and the crazies are in there telling him he needs to swim faster. I'm all about discussion on improvement but sometimes I just can't handle the slowtwitch banter.

    I hear you. Kind of toxic over there.

  • That's why it is called Slowbitch!

  • Thanks for sharing and congrats to your friend!
