1. “Don’t cram training. I lacked mileage in my bike and my legs were beaten up after the bike and I suffered on the run.”

2. “Prepare for the rolling hills and use lower profile wheels for more stability riding through the winds of Kona.”

3. “I was nervous and there were a lot of self-doubt and questions. ‘Have I trained enough?’, ‘Can I survive the brutal and windy bike course?’ Ultimately, I just trusted my training.”
