More Manatee Mayhem - 2017 Edition - Closed (Page 65)

It sounds like a good race to me!!! Way to go.

Agreed!  

Good race! You'll get 'er next time :-D

Congrats!! I'm trying to ignore that there is "only" 6 months til Louisville

Nice!!

Still a very impressive race and finish!  Enclosed wet, muddy, sweaty race gear = mega stink, good luck!

Have you looked at the Chrome browser extension StravistiX?

Heh! That is a good one. Though, I am not a Strava user.

Is the funny part how they try to pass off km/hr as an actual unit? Mostly just nodding along in agreement here.

These can be fun to watch, but tend to have that hold-my-breath feeling as to what may be taken away from something like this. I'm not sure most people take 2 years to get there. Maybe, but think it's more to having to sign up a full year in advance as opposed to training that long. Loads of threads just here on starting the IM build in 8 months or less. For someone who's already quite active, 6 months isn't necessarily truncating things. And on one hand I know it's for dramatic effect in a video, but on another I'm still asking why he's out of breath so much when the bulk of training is at a pretty easy effort.

He is a pretty big guy, so hoping he only ends up leaning out a little over that time period, mostly so others don't get unrealistic expectations. Especially since it sounds like he'll keep up a good deal of strength work too.

Beautiful!

Did you see all the commotion over on ST about Jordan Rapp being sued by Dimond? He left them because he felt the bikes were unsafe, so curious how other Dimond owners are feeling with this development.
