Mahirap ba talaga ang Duathlon?

Share nyo naman experience nyo...

Makoy wrote:Mahirap ba talaga ang Duathlon?

di naman. pag na pace mo na sarili mo yaka na.

sample sprint ka: 1hour lang naman yan ana effort.
sa lahat ng leg pwede ka THRESHOLD pace.
lahat ng leg pwede ka pumush sa last km (semi blowout)
kc makakapahinga ka sa transition area

----------

pinaka mahirap sa dua eh yung transition area
maputik yan kung umulan surely
at hirap hanapin ang bike lalo na hilo ka galing sa takbo.

memorizin mo talaga at mag mock entry ka sa transition area b4 the race.
makakapasok ka dun para magpractice kc kailangan mo ipasok ang bike.

nawalan ata ako ng 1 minute noon kc naligaw ako.

tsaka kailangan mo rin praktisin yung skill na pag change from running outfit to cycling and vice versa (anyways madali lang ito)

Nice tip fafi Ryan. Ayos din basahin yung sa link na share mo blindrunner! Mas ok kung mapapraktis.

Yung jersey di ba yun n din yung pantakbo, so bale shoes na lang ang papalitan. So better buy ng cheap lace for dua/tri.yung di na magsisintas.

As i see it, another adventure to. Another learning sexperience

Hoping for more info and tips...

@giant, hindi ako duathlon expert ha, pero based lang sa duathlon 2011 experience ko sa ecp ay eto....
sa first run leg ko, i paced myself mga 60-70% effort lang, pang warm-up sa bike leg.
sa bike leg, time to take nutrition, 90-95% effort (40kph+) along stretch ng ecp service road, tutal closed yun sa vehicles at malapad kalye, pero pag pasok sa loob ng ecp after sailing club ay reduce speed, recovery 70% effort, very prone to accident, masikip, daming fun riders zigzaging and hugging the road at mga kids biglang tatawid.
sa last run leg ko, sabog ang binti ko after 1km, kaya mabagal 5km run ko noon, t'was my fault kasi hindi ako nag brick workout (bike to run transition) prior sa race.
kung makita mo 2011 results ko below, ako pinakamabagal sa last 5km run leg ng top 10 finishers
importante talaga ang brick workout sa duathlon, esp if you are aiming for a decent time.
good luck sa iyo sa 2012 duathlon!

Wow! interesting...

Nice tip Earth... what on earth happens to your calves?
We don't use our calf muscles that much during cycling...

Which one is the top part, run to bike or bike to run?

Tnx.

@makoy, i used my tri specific bike, iba geometry ng tri at road, naka forward position ako kaya gumagana din ang calves ko during cycling.
ang critical sa bike to run transition ay ang dismounting, pag push ng bike to transition area at pag suot ng running shoes. kung not enough ang brick workout ay pwedeng pulikatin which will lead to suffering during the last run leg.
ang style ko sa dismounting ay kapag last 300-200 meters na ay tinatanggal ko na ang mga paa ko sa cycling shoes, at maiiwan na lang yung cycling shoes ko sa pedals, kasi mas madali mag push ng bike kung naka-paa na at iwas tapilok o dulas.
pag suot naman ng running shoes ay naka tayo yuko ako, yung iba nagdadala pa ng mini chair kasi mas iwas daw sa pulikat kapag naka upo relax habang isusuot ang running shoes.
try to search sa utube, para sa mga tips on bike to run transition
mas tough and critical ang bike to run transition, dyan lahat nadadale kahit mga pros.

Thanks for another helpful info boss MikeC. Astig naman pala placing nyo sa age group. Bravo! Another elite!
For a starter eh sprint cat lang muna ako. And let me see where i can go from there. Hehehe.

Base dun sa training plan need mag gym or pilates once a week. Paano ba magpa book ke Michel? Hehehe.

thanks din sa mga pointers!.mukhang mapapasali din ako nito...training muna..:)

Based from previous experience ng mga sumali na dito...

Di b masyadong crowded and ECP during the bike race part?
Will it help kung naka-aero/TT position ka, or it becomes useless kasi nga masyadong crowded yung lugar?

I'm really considering to join...
