241 - Husky Triathlon Festival - Gerard McDermott

I recently was able to talk with a great person from Australia about a non-branded 70.3 distance race. This race is the Husky Triathlon Ultimate Distance. This race was won by the infamous Craig Alexander and is a wonderful smaller race that has a unique venue. Beginning in the ocean, then a 3x30km bike ride, then solid run course of just over 700ft of gain, this makes for a great course. Gerard is a huge fan of the show and loved sharing his experience. He mentions how some equipment changes could have led to a better race but didn’t stop him from putting down a solid time. This was Gerard’s first time to get on the podium and talks about this moment in detail. Thanks for coming on the show Gerard, good luck in May!-Weather that day: 66 - 77Water: 71.6-Age Group: M50-54 Height: 5’7”Weight: 183lbsCalories per hour: 320PSI for this course: 100Depth of Wheels: disc/808FBike Elevation Gain: 2743ftRun Elevation Gain: 728ftSwim: 36:37T1: 2:49Bike: 2:31:37T2: 1:49Run: 1:41:47Total Race Time: 4:54:40-Gender Rank: 96Division Rank: 3Overall Rank: 105-Follow Gerard,Facebook: Gerard McDermottInstagram: @gerard.mcdermott-Follow Coach Terry:Instagram: @PerfectRacePodcastFacebook: www.facebook.com/CoachTerryWilsonWebsite: www.CoachTerryWilson.com
