Kind of a pacing question, as I rode hard but not *too* hard over Yellow Lake, but the last 10k so from Hwy 97 on kicked my ass. I assume that was pretty much it across the board, and overall still improved my time over the previous year substantially, but was it that much harder than normal, or would you think/suggest that final 20k from the top of Yellow is always harder and pacing wise one should account for it more? (I didn't lose time to others, just felt hammered for the first 2 miles off the bike more than normal, then felt better)
After freezing to 97 last year - I flew into Penticton - low level flying this year for sure. Also, thanks for the GF ideas for pre race dinner & breakfast at Whole Foods - while "new" for race day, it worked as I expected it would. And, unlike you - no GI distress, although I DID stop for number 2 on the run...
