Lucy Charles - Best Video Yet #Konaseries
Quote | Reply
Hello ST,

Just posted my video with Lucy. I truly think it’s the best video yet. After talking with her she is a new person from last year. I spent some time with here and Reece in Slovakia earlier and then again in South Africa 70.3 wc. They told me she did not taper for 70.3 worlds. Her main focus was kona. South Africa was a last second decision in the middle of a big block. I don’t know why but I have a feeling we might witness an upset. Who else thinks lucy will be the first to cross the line?

Ps to the hater who hated on all my drone shots. I did not even get out my drone for Lucy’s video! 😘 Your welcome! Haha

Also if you wanna win a roka swim skin and win Lucy’s from the race follow my gram. 😉 Instagram.com/talbotcox

I think LC will win. She needs to get her tactics right, if she can hang on to some slower pros wheels on the bike, perhaps push that 12m boundary and hit the run with a reasonable lead she's got a good chance.

I hope you are right about her taking the win. That would be awesome. Thanks for the great content. The swim shots and underwater footage are also helpful from a technical angle.

Watching her run it seems like she is losing some mechanicall leverage from over flexible swimmer knees and also swimmer ankles. She's almost kicks her legs out straight ahead before flexing a bit on impact, but is forced into some extra vertical displacement because of the straighter leg and losing the mechanical leverage during the compression phase from a more "bent knee"...almost the "seat is too high" version of running. But maybe an optical illusion from the video angle, however the guy running beside her has more of a conventional bent knee angle. Just looking at that, this appears to be some of the delta between her marathon and say Rinnie or Daniela who get a bit more quad and glute engagement in their run stride (at least visually).

Great video!

Please ask LC to get her helmet strap figured out for this year’s race.

Great video! Wouldn't call it an upset if Lucy Charles wins - Ryf is superstrong but so is Lucy. If anyone else wins, it would be an upset. OK maybe not if Rinny were to win (who may also be stronger than she has ever been...).

Love the videos, but any consideration for some different genres of music? Maybe you've added some rock, but I've only ever heard electronic music.

I do love the Lucy video best of all but the Sara True video is excellent also. She comes across as super genuine and down to earth. Also, some good underwater shots of her in the pool.

Agree.. cant stand the music on these videos.. I try and turn the volume right down whenever I think there is no dialogue so probably miss some things...

I think LC will definitely be a future WC but probably not this year. Hope I'm wrong though.

The talk is of her going back to ITU to try for the Olympics. I hope that's not the case as I definitely think she could be the future WC too...

Ha, amazing. You have just continued to validate my theory that Lucy Charles never does an interview/blog without mentioning Reece. Quite frankly it's weird.
