1:39:31, slowing again. Now 1 minute, 31 seconds behind his goal pace. He’s struggling.
Predicted finish: 2:19:58. I don’t think he’ll hang on for sub 2:20.

Wheels falling off now.
I’d say major fade is coming. 2:22/2:23. Still a PR. But poorly executed race once again. Hopefully he proves me wrong.
I thought the prospects of lining up against Jornet and Canaday were factoring into what he was doing with training. (Alas, it appears Canaday has backed out of that prospective duel?)

Meant to say, “…lining up against Jornet and Canaday in six weeks”.
Just checked, actually Zegama is seven weeks (May 29), still a relatively short window to go up against one of the perceived G.O.A.T.’s (I’m obviously referring to Jornet).
01:57:00 for 35k. Oh dear. 2min40 off goal pace. Predicted finish: 2:21:03. Big blow up on the cards.
Also looks like Matt Fox has dropped out… AGAIN. This guy can’t finish a race at the moment.

Honestly doesn't matter anyways. Kilian is far above SJD.
That was a fantastic finish.
he's pacing the lead woman :)
Live feed showing SJD running alongside the womens leader.
SJD playing to the crowd lmao
I'm guessing last split pace to be 03:40
Also he may be signaling for her to pass him, he’s Probly slowing her down lol

I wouldn't be surprised if he said he sacrificed his race to help her.
Based on his training & other oddities, I'd be honestly pretty impressed by a 2:21ish.

Huge miss from my side 03:31. Proj finish 02:21:58. Is that a PR for him?
02:24:24 for 40k. Estimated finish 2:21:58.
Reality is her being there is probably holding him together but still impressive hasn't totally blown up
