Do we have HR data on him or any of the other athletes?
Also wondering what their Vo2 max are.
This. Can't really seem to find any good Vo2Max data on the pros.. It only tells a part of the story, but still interesting to see what their levels are at.

Just curious...the bike course lists a total elevation of 5k and change...but Sander's TP data shows 8k and change...why the variation? --------------------------------------------------------------- My other car is a Felt. DFL>DNF>DNS.
"There will come a day you won't be able to do this, today is not that day."
He over ran not over biked, he was at 2:37 pace 8-9 nine miles in, he won't make that mistake again. He ran a 2:51 I believe. I'm guessing he could have ran a 2:47 or less if he started off more conservative.
He might have overrun in the beginning. But the fi al surge from frodeno group amd back to kienle might have bee the worst part! He said in the interview he got scared in the crosswind, so fix that ride more steady to t2 start at ok pace on the run amd we ha e a æossible winner!
I think he mau have had a better overall time if he didnt push the bike quite as hard, although I think he could have had a similar split off fewer watts if he'd just tuck his knees in more. Honestly I just don't think yesterday was his day and I respect him for the race he ran. Second place at kona is huge, both in terms of the improvements he has made and in general. I'm just getting sick of how slowtwitch has become a LS circle jerk and was trying to poke and see how his fanboys would react.

What's not to 'jerkoff' over bro? ..Small town d. addict decides ~8 yrs ago he's going to learn how to swim and try doing a Tri? ..lol ..Now he's arguably the top dog...beating Olympians and guys who've been running around in spandex since grade 3 and you ain't a fanboy yet?:)
