Subject: RE: duathlon vs. triathlonYes, use your tri bike, you will have the same advantages as in a tri using sticking to your tri bike.
Make sure you do some reversed bricks, i.e. go for a race pace run the same distance as your first run on the Du and then jump on your tri bike for a quick couple of miles. You will find that it does take a bit getting "used" to the bike after the run. As everyone has already said, the second run is 90% mental strength and 10% running ability. It will hurt, but it is a blast at the same time.
I really miss Du´s.... here in Sweden we only have one and that´s the nationals each year. Sticking to cycling until we get back to the States again. |
