This was Jana’s 7th and 6th consecutive race in Kona, and it finally all came together. She had an average swim, but one where she felt strong throughout, and when her feet hit the ground in transition she was ready to go. She executed the best bike she ever had, and was able to get stronger throughout the ride. The goal was to ride like Daniela Ryf always does, making my move coming down from Hawi, and the last 30 miles heading back into town and she was able to do that and was really feeling stronger than ever. Coming off the bike, her legs still felt fresh and ready to run even if the run training lead up wasn't ideal due to knee niggles. Starting out, the goals was to control running by heart rate, and power, and focused on getting to the top of Palani hill feeling in control. She did have some low moments going in and coming out of the energy lab, but was able to turn it around, and finish strong! Making pass for 1st place at mile 22 is something she will never forget. It was that pass that gave her new energy she didn't know she had! She has dreamt of winning this race since 2012, so this was a dream come true for Jana and it's hard to explain just how amazing it was.-Weather that day: 70-86Water Temperature: 80ishAge Group: F35-39Height: 5'8"Weight: 126Calories per hour: 90g of carbs per hour on the bikeNutrition Company used: Levelen, Clif, Honey Stinger, SiS, Salt StickDepth of Wheels: Irwin Cycling 60/88 comboPSI for this course: 80Bike Elevation Gain: 5814Run Elevation Gain: 1009Swim: 1:16:02T1: 3:17Bike: 4:58:41T2: 3:53Run: 3:33:52Total Race Time: 9:55:45Gender Rank: 11th Amateur, 40th with pro'sDivision Rank: 1Overall Rank: 491st-Follow Jana,IG: @czechchick15Website: www.e3ts.com-Follow Coach Terry:Instagram: @PerfectRacePodcast
