Hi all,

Any one doing this Tri in 3 Weeks Time ?

This is going to be my first Tri, I am used to cycling the Bike Route, but never really paid any attention to the steep hill climb as in speed wise, just took my time and got up that hill seen i would be doing 60k + and didn't want to go to mad up the hills

i was wondering are you better off going Mad up hills on a 20k Bike route as in High Gears low cadence

seen the shortness of the distance. or would 19 km/hr do just fine ?

Sprints are all about speed, but only mash up the hills if you know you can run well off the bike after it.
