Brett Suttons Kommentar zu Daniela Ryfs Performance:
"Challenge Roth is done and dusted and it seems writing a race recap for the Angry Bird (Daniela Ryf) is becoming a pointless exercise. We all saw a rather special performance. I could pretend it was a great coaching feat, but the truth is it wasn’t.
Not in my dreams did I believe she would be so competitive. Behind in her training schedule with illness and change of plans I honestly was waiting for her legs to fall off at the 140km mark after ignoring instructions to ride conservatively. Instead, she produced one of the most stunning last 40km on the bike we’ve seen for a 4:31 split. The run legs are only fit to run 25km, but with 2:57 marathon I think she held it together quite well.
I know no-one believes me.
‘You guys were gunning for the record the whole time but not telling anyone!’
But I don’t know what to say. Ask any of the squad members who were on deck over the last 10 days since Frankfurt and have seen it themselves – the coughing, the arguments poolside about being ‘too sick to train’ and then can turn up at Roth and do that. I don’t believe it myself.
Until now I’ve been very, very hesitant about making comparisons between Chrissie (Wellington) but there’s no choice. We are privileged to be in the company of not a Champion, but a phenomenon. And as with Chrissie I suggest everyone just sits back and enjoys the ride!"
