Just a few days left, since its a regional championship i assume there will be coverage so have freed my calendar. I think it will be a crazy fast time, maybe sub 7:50. Last year burgs went 47-4:17-2:52 for 8:02 and i think Gomez will pretty much match his swim/bike but i think he’ll run sub 2:40. Wouldn’t be surprised if he dropped the hammer and ran something stupid like a 2:35 to freak out some kona contenders,
I don't see him riding 4:17 on the bike. He'll be front pack on the swim, nothing faster, he'll ride front pack, them just jog it in for the win.
Last year Burgs swam off the front then rode solo off the front until Wurf caught him, then dropped Wurf on the bike if I recall. Basically went wire to wire for the win. I think Gomez will be conservative all day, and win comfortably doing so.
