I think the fact that Lance arrived in a skin suit, averaged 56km/h and only rode 15 odd seconds into an Ironman guy shows the strength and power Chris Lieto has in him. Well done Chris for keeping us Ironman guys in the loop with arguably the best cyclist of all time.
I loved the comment from Lance that they will have another showdown, in a few years, in October…..
you guys might remember this guy.
He was in a sprint finish with another one of the worlds best athletes over the weekend, in a half Ironman. For the un-ironman people out there, thats a 1.9km swim, followed by a 90km bike ride, and to finish the event off (its continuous) a 21.2km run.
Its almost flat out the whole way, and in this race, it ended up in a sprint finish. Click the link to check out the rest of the pictures. they are beautiful.
