"Crickey. Top age group times in #Kona but even if you look down top [--] its all incredibly fast. Between 18-39 mostly 8:30-35. I know conditions werent THAT brutal as years before so this helps. But age group racing is insanely fast these days. Not many sports like it #IMWC"

"Another weekend of marathons another reminder. Garmin time Strava time is not your finish time or your result. Its your chip time. They give you the chip for this exact purpose. It starts when you cross the line ends when you finish. ✌🫣 #marathon"

"I see we have reached the point where people are arguing if you should run on a treadmill or not in the winter. I think as long as you are running. Who really cares. Do what works for you. What you feel best. This isnt a better or worse situation to create drama over"
