Champion  6503    NOVA - Ironic for an Endurance Athlete |  Subject: "Fatting" out of a raceIn the last 6 years, I have participated in at least 40 endurance races, from 10k to IM to OWS long swims (4.4 M). I have completed every race for whichI have signed up. For some I was well-trained. For several, way undertrained. I even raced a 70.3 the day after totaling my car. However, I find myself staring down Savageman 70.0 about 15 lbs heavier than I planned. I am thinking about downgrading to the 30.0. WWBTD? Thanks for your advice. |

I PRd and qualified for Worlds, mainly because I think my even though my weight is higher, my fitness has improved from my consistent training. Go for the full! |
