This was advertised as the toughest 10k in NY. It lived up to its name

More hill training. I thought Lake Placid was hard. Even Quassy was easier.

Event comments:

Good inaugural race. The field had a ton of Ironman competitors competing. Everyone else looked mean and lean. I can't wait till next year to do this race. I will be more prepared. I red lined this race with a avg hr of 189. I set a PR for a 10k for myself but I think I am still not recovered from Placid.

I struggled on the bike while climbing the hill portions of the course. I do fine on long straight rides but really have a tough time while hill climbing. Any advice or training tips?

When we get ready to train or race, we have a pretty fixed set of thoughts. We are unaware of how they affect our racing.

I’m terrified of biking hills and the triathlon I am registered for has several hills…on AND off road!! I’m willing to do whatever it takes to finish this triathlon. Any guidance?

It makes no sense to train hard for a year to hone that aerobic system only to have all that training undermined by a few anaerobic bursts on race day. So, how do you go about it?

A better bike is not the answer to meeting your performance goals. I mean if you gave Nike running shoes to a tortoise would he move any faster?
