Below is my summary for the 2010 duathlon season. It started off slow, due to recovery from my injury, and ended up pretty fast. I am pleased with my duathlon results for this year. 2008 was my fastest season overall, my fastest bike splits were this year. Duathlon is where is started in 2006. In 2006 I did them on a Lemond Sarthe road bike with bolt on aerobars. As you can see from my times in 2006 I was really slow.
Duathlon is tricky for me, as I think it is for a lot of people. I think that everyone wants to go out and run that first run hard, but doing that can kill you for the bike and second run. I went to a duathlon clinic held at Gear West earlier this year, where cutting back on the first run was recommended and discussed, and it makes sense, but it is hard to do. I think it takes a lot of discipline to temper that first run. I don't have that yet.
In 2011 I plan on doing the same four duathlons I did this year.
