Chris Maccormick (great triathlete) tells this story about a friend of his that could not break 10 hours in Ironman (10 hours 3 minutes was his best). Chris told him to SLOW DOWN and walk the aid stations at least six times (he only walked twice in previous races). So his friend did that and beat his best time by 23 minutes to finish at 9 hours forty minutes! The lesson there is sometimes SLOWING DOWN will make your time better!
Super J5, you might be the craziest poster on LRC ... but you are always cheerful, respectful, and positive, and I hope you don't stop.
Thanks beantaxi! They said the same type of things on Slowtwitch about me but Slowman banned me because I dared to disagree with him! The thing about so many people is they love to dish it out but they can't take it (interesting ideas).
