Episode Description

<p class="p1">What a race! Today we go through our observations of the Kona Women's World Championship. We start with some intriguing swim strategies, get into decision making on the bike, and look at what might have gone wrong from the leaders in the run. It was a fascinating day and we get into the concept of going wire to wire. Mental pressure. Working together. How smart can you be. And why it clearly ain't over till it's over.</p> <p class="p1"><strong>Topics:</strong></p> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1">100 Milers</li> <li class="li1">Spoiler alert</li> <li class="li1">It ain't over til it's over</li> <li class="li1">Lucy Charles Barclay</li> <li class="li1">Taylor Knibb</li> <li class="li1">Kat Matthews</li> <li class="li1">Solveig Lovseth</li> <li class="li1">Kona swim</li> <li class="li1">Pro swim strategies</li> <li class="li1">Did they race like Age groupers to win?</li> <li class="li1">Keeping the core temp down is the goal</li> <li class="li1">Surges</li> <li class="li1">Racing by impulse</li> <li class="li1">How smart can you be?</li> <li class="li1">The Ass tap</li> <li class="li1">The meltdown</li> <li class="li1">He coaches both</li> <li class="li1">Julie Moss</li> <li class="li1">You have to do you when they don't do them</li> <li class="li1">Is parity good for the sport?</li> <li class="li1">Gambling?</li> </ul> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p3"><span class="s2">Mike Tarrolly - <a href= "mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></span></p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p3"><span class="s2">Robbie Bruce - <a href= "mailto:[email protected]"><span class= "s3">[email protected]</span></a></span></p>
