Re: Lieto, Starky weigh in on Talansky [rhys]
I get what Starky is saying but even at shitty hack AG level switching from months of run only over to biking I lost no bike power when I came back. Running helps cycling. one mans opinion. //

I don't think you understand what is going on here. You are one thing, but a guy that has hit his absolute fastest and fittest in a sport at a world class level, has no where to go but down. Now things like having to spend as much time as you did in one sport doing two different ones, while still tying to hold onto what you had, well that is just going to drop all your old power and times. You on the other hand got no where close to your potential and may even get faster just doing jump rope for 3 hours a day. (-;


It is like Lucy Charles now just swimming 30k a week, she is not going to go 2 hours for a 10k anymore because she has to spend a lot of hours biking and running and not swimming. But she is likely to win the swim on Saturday, probably breaking the new course record set last year. Of course both these people are still going to be very fast in their respective sports, just not like they were. Guys like Starky and Leito know this dynamic and it is just a warning to all of us not to be looking for any 4;10 Kona split from him in the future..
