Hey all
So I did my first 70.3 this past weekend, and the bike did not go as well as hoped. My power was 186 np, 180w average, and pace was 21.5mph. I believe my ftp is around 250-265w (I measured it at 285 a while ago not in aero position, so taking off 20-35w for being in aero and maybe some losses in power since the test).
Despite what I feel should have been a conservative bike, my legs were pretty wrecked for the run and I ran quite slow.
I’m wondering if there is an issue with my fit or if I just wasn’t ready for the 56mile bike.
Here’s a vid of me in a trainer and some stills, any insight is greatly appreciated thanks!
