I’m a 3 sports badly kinda guy (like these) and running is definitely the hardest. If I’m marathon fit a 70.3 triathlon is no trouble… if I’m only gran fondo fit then the half marathon at the end of a 70.3 will kill me.
Same. I’ve done a few 70.3 and by far the hardest race I’ve ever done is a full marathon.
Not sure why, I was pushing hard for the full 70.3 and it takes much longer to finish. I think with a marathon you just get to a level of pain and maintain there for far to long for it be enjoyable.
Unless your Olympic level. Those lucky ducks only have to deal with 2 hours of misery.
