What factors should someone consider in the 140.6 that is less of a factor in the 70.3 or shorter distances races?
I have done three 70.3's and several other distances but this is my first go at the 140.6. Seems like a major difference between the 140.6 and 70.3 is that you can over-bike the 70.3 and still hold on for a reasonable run but over-biking the 140.6 would crush all hope of solid run . . . Just trying to pick ST's brain as I gear up for IM TX (yes, I know IM TX was a topic of controversy last year but it's close to home for me).
