Respekt!

Insbesondere nachdem Sutton sich gar nicht sooo optimistisch zeigte:

So why is she competing in her debut Ironman now? Easy. Because she can. Because it’s a challenge. Because it’s fun and all her training partners are going to be there. Should she, or any other competitor on the start line need any more reason? Absolutely not.

(hatte ich schon zitiert)

As for the race in Cozumel itself. Is she ready? Training-wise not even close. She’s spent the year running, not riding. But that’s also beside the point. Like most other age-group athletes Nicola goes into this race under-prepared but with a smile on her face and an apprehension in her heart about whether she’s got what it takes to complete an Ironman. We will see the answer to that in 2 weeks.

Da dürfte also noch ein wenig Verbesserungspotenzial schlummern.
Vielleicht wird Ryf ja doch nicht zur alleinigen Dominatorin ...
