| » Taupo Half Iron Man - 1st Place (18/12/2005) |
Hi all,
Well I have just jumped off Alan Jones's massage table after finishing my
2nd race of the year; the Taupo Half Ironman.
Training has been going really well and I have lifted the miles in the last couple of weeks so this race was not rested for, it was just a hard training
day in prep for up and coming races.
I had a great swim lead from the water, rode strongly on a day that didn't stop raining to lead into transition 2. From here I worked hard on the first 6km of the run, eased off in the middle and ran the last couple of km hard again.
I came in, in 3hr 56min 55sec breaking Terenzo's course record set last year
and had a win by 9mins.
Things are on track for the races coming up (Tauranga Half IM on the 7th
Jan, Auckland Half IM on the 28th and then onto NZ IM on the 4th March).
Thanks for all your support! |
