Hi All,
Just a quick line to let you all no im back in race mode now, having my first win of the NZ season today in an Olympic distance race in Maraetai Auckland NZ.
This was the first race in my build up heading towards the NZ long distance champs and IM NZ.
Training has been going well and is bang on track, I had a few key areas I wanted to target today and nailed them.
I had a strong swim to have a good lead out of the water, but the bike was the big key for me today having changed position a little, once into my work I held a even pace and the cadence I had targeted and dominated the bike having a 7min lead at the end of the 40km, on to the run and I wanted to run strong and even and bring the 2nd lap home quicker, its a tough run with lots of up hill, but I really worked the 2nd lap and run the 2nd lap 15sec faster than the first.
To win in 1hr56min and by a sizable lead of 9min.
I achieved my goals for this race and am ahead of where I thought I would be at this stage.
Time to recover now before the Tinman tri at the Mount next weekend.
Thank you all for your support.
Train hard ,talk soon .
