Wet and wild day out in southern France. 70.3 Aix en Provence was everything I had hoped for and more! What a beautiful part of the world. Incredibly average swim for me left a lot of work to do. Fought back on the bike using the hills and technical wet descents to my advantage, eventually bridging back to leader … potentially not the smartest strategy from us trading blows on the bike instead of working together. But that’s how we love to race, hard off the front so I don’t regret a thing. showed that form is temporary but class is permanent, fastest bike of the day for him and set up an exciting run battle. boxed the smartest and dropped an incredible 1:07 half marathon on a tough course to take the tape, well done to him. Bart held on for second and I rounded out the podium in 3rd. Shout out to Matty for a brave race bringing it home in 4th. Super fun battle, excited to keep the progress building towards my big goal at the end of the season.
