    Funny enough Brett Sutton believes that long distance athletes should run more on the entire foot or even strike with the heel... "Studies have shown that elite long-distance triathletes and runners often naturally switch from a mid-foot to heel strike as the distances grow longer. In fact, former world marathon record holder Haile Gebrselassie purposefully switched to heel striking en route to becoming a sub-2:04 marathoner."

    Motivation? Maybe not pushing yourself as hard during the race as a year ago.

    Worth reading: http://www.thecorediet.com/blog/the-triathlon-fueling-window/ "What this shows is that with a low carb approach, yes, you may improve metabolic efficiency and reduce the amount of fuel your body requires, but it comes at a significant cost! You also reduce your ability to digest and handle nutrition. Overall, you reduce your available “fueling window” (difference between what your body needs and what your digestive system can handle) and likelihood of success".

    I was in wave 2 as well, the swim felt more like a boxing match than a swim.

    I think it’s more a mental thing, it prepares your mind so you know what to expect.

    Don't know but I've been told that training for an Ironman is harder than training for Comrades?

    Used mine for the first time during the Magalies Monster this weekend, plugged and bombed a sidewall cut in less than 5 minutes. Very useful to have.
