Two words for Natascha - “Welcome Back”!
Looks like Chrissie is actually going to have to pass someone in the Energy Lab this year…
So very happy to see this! Yea Natascha!!

I’m really stoked that Natasha is back on good form, I always liked her and the way she raced. I’m always going to root for the plus 40 crowd too…
But Chrissie will only see Natasha at the swim start, and that’s it. Her swim is at a new level now, like I thought it would be after being with Simon…A 50 minute wetsuit swim is a big breakthough for her on what looked like a legit swim course. She will be 4 to 7 minutes ahead out of the water on Natasha, and the way she is riding, may not give up any ground, and if so, just a couple minutes…SHe pretty much will race wire to wire for the next few years, except when there is an uber swimmer in the field. And then it will take a few miles to get to the front where she will race the MOP/BOP men pros…
We need a “masters legends” category at Kona complete with prize money, starting in the Pro wave. Do you think Dave Scott can beat Ms. Badmann ? 
Awesome. She’s a powerhouse of an athlete and fun to watch. All of those NBC packages on her make her look like a very gracious and well deserving champion - I can’t wait to see what she throws down in Kona.
Yeah…what Monty said…
