TRO Saracen May 2019 6:02pm, 25 May 2019 18,791 posts	Quote Pin TRO Saracen Yes gutted for Tubs but tough course and today it seems to be throwing tough conditions in on top. Tracking a couple of guys I know and their times are very slow compared to what I’d expect.

Sorry to hear IronTubs DNF'd sounds like it was tough going. 6 miles today it was wet but at least it wasn't windy and there wasn't as much coughing, I'm hoping for a more varied week next week, with two trips to the pool. I've got my eye on a couple of sprints at the tail end of the summer.
Irontubs May 2019 9:09pm, 25 May 2019 2,904 posts	Quote Pin Irontubs I'm alive! Gutted to miss the last checkpoint, especially since I missed the downhill finish after all that climbing. To be fair even if I had got through the checkpoint I would have struggled to make the bike/run cut off & not sure my legs would have had a 5:30 marathon in them after that.
Irontubs May 2019 9:12pm, 25 May 2019 2,905 posts	Quote Pin Irontubs Just as a matter of interest TRO how much slower were the bike splits for the guys that you know?
TRO Saracen May 2019 11:02pm, 25 May 2019 18,792 posts	Quote Pin TRO Saracen 20-30 mins. Overall one guy was about 45 mins off, swim was slower, as was run but probably 25mins of it was bike. He biked Tenby last year around 5:50, was 6:09 today and has been training like a beast all winter (going to Kona in October). I found Tenby and Lanza bike times very similar, but its supposed to be a harder course now at Lanza than my race (2014).
