Sub 7:50 in the cards

I hope he gets on here and sees that Monty jinxed him. I smell a lighter wallet and an ass kicking from LS for Monty!

I thought Lucy was over extending herself in her videos and had no realistic basis to think she could best Ryf outside the water. And just the other day I asked someone here who didn't have Ryf winning, if Ryf was hurt or sick.
So yeah, both my picks are crushing it. If you see salty anywhere in my posts you're drunk or projecting it.

Potts -
my eyes in Kona said he was limping and started to walk.
getting old sucks
:)

All of the Sanders fan boys will be returning their lot of Gatorade Endurance first thing in the morning.

Lange isn't great mechanically - but somehow it looks great

Dunno he maybe gets the shits?

Take a short break from ST and read my blog:

And beating Patrik Nilsson too.

Thank God Sanders doesn't need a coach. He definitely has it figured out.

Seems to run really well in the heat. Definitely not the biomechanics for running fast fast (sub 30 10km) but sub 2:40 in oppressive conditions seems to be no problem.

so rinny's 4 minutes off the podium at 7 miles - looks good for her. i'm waiting for haug and sali to pick it up a bit too.

I seem to be the the only one who doesn’t think Lange has a amooth stride. Smooth for a triathlete maybe, but he doesn’t look relaxed like real runners.

Terrible Tuesday’s Triathlon

Carfrae isn’t making up time on the other women as fast as I expected. Is she losing time on Ryf?

How lucky was Lange that he had a team mate to pull him? Didn't really have to worry about anybody else in that group as he outruns them all, except maybe Gomez.
On top of that Kienle had his best swim at Kona ever and pretty much came out of the water with Wurf but had to change his back wheel within the first couple of miles, which broke up a potentially very strong bike duo. And Sanders must have had a bad swim, he swam several minutes faster in practice last week, so he came out of the water minutes down from Kienle even. Wurf and Starky (and Amberger) biked well together, but they could have benefitted from a bit more help in the second half of the bike. The type of help Lange had the whole way.

Is Sanders is truly crumbling now, lost 4 min between 19.5 and 22.2 km.

We'll see then.
Yeah, and you ignored all videos played during this broadcast.

Where are the Lange haters now? Dude has this race nailed down.

All of the Talbot Cox crew have been crumbling (Gwen, Lionel). Hope Tim and Rinny have a peaceful finish...

She just rode what, 4:38? Before today Ryf has never ridden faster than 4:50. I’d say Lucy was spot on being that optimistic, but just didn’t see Ryf putting up a 24 minute PB on the bike. ;)

Yes, lost 30s between 7.1 and 8.9 according to the tracker.

He has destroyed them.

Why are the commentators quoting Sanders like he is some strategic guru?

Yep you’re alone. If you were his coach, how would you improve his form in order to look like a real runner?

I dont even know how his teammate is doing in the run now (too lazy to care to look up his split), but there's always some pros who die on the run....So it's also something that I dont even think can be solved from a rules modification, etc. Lange's just schooling the field. He could hear the noise and just point to the #1 on his number.

What do you want the athlete to say? I don't believe I can win. My dream is second place.
