Jordan Rapp. Langue dans la poche? Non Mr. Et vlan! Dans les dents de la WTC – par nul autre qu’un athlète Pro, respecté, décoré, bien articulé, qui n’a pas peur de mettre les points sur les « i » et surtout très présent sur les Interwebs. Simply put, I think the way our sport exists currently, with all roads leading to Kona is a very bad thing. (…) if you win Kona, you get huge media attention.

We are triathletes, we train a lot! Understand that we are getting gains from cross training and reduce some of those junk miles, and put quality into it. Instead of a long steady-hard swim set, put in some max/threshold every now and again. I can hear people already saying « but im not a sprinter ».
