Ironman 70.3 Ecuador - 5th 

8/18/2016

Fastest swim, 2nd fastest bike, 2nd in T2. 

Ironman 70.3 Ecuador: after leading the Ocean swim and building a 7min+ gap on the field (minus eventual race-winner @cody.beals who had a stellar day) thru the very rolling bike course, I really thought I had 2nd place secured. With 4k to go, the wheels fell off □: I bonked hard and went backwards. I'm usually not harsh on myself, as I'm all about 'the process', but am not stoked on this 5th place after being off/at the front the whole day. □ Man this 70.3 game is such a puzzle for me! Looking forward to figuring the riddle out sooner rather than later... □ ---- "Get up, Stand up, Don't give up the fight!" - Bob Marley ----- #ironmanec #triathlon #ironman #ecuador

This guy out front the @oroverde_manta having a blast! ?? Good kiting conditions seem to be following me around the races...wish that was the case when I myself was ACTUALLY chasing wind & waves! Racing triathlons professionally around the world has been the ultimate sacrifice. No time, energy, or desire to get in the water. Better make it all worthwhile this Sunday at #im703manta ! ?? #kitesurfing #ecuador #manta #kiteboarding #kitezone #triathlon @ironman70.3ecuador
