“So no Ironman WC Hawaii for me this year. A difficult decision but I’m in the last 18 months of my career and I have to make choices. My goal is to add some more Ironman victories to my resume. Hawaii on my schedule would make things more difficult since you need to sacrifice months of training for 1 race. I won Hawaii in 2013 and for now, I don’t feel I have anything left to prove there.”
Sounds like he wants to enjoy his final 18 months!
I presume he ‘accepted’ his slot at Lanza. Does this slot get reallocated, if so does it roll down the Lanza pro finishers or drop into another race?
Good on him for ending his career on his terms.

The new system doesn’t allow for roll downs or reallocation if someone decides not to show up…
Yes its a good way to end his career, doing the races he otherwise wouldn’t have done knowing that he wouldn’t be that competitive at Kona anymore
