Pablo Dapena's analysis of Challenge Miami

Pablo stayed alone for 56 kilometers in cycling and then suffered a little foul in the foot race

The Galician triathlete Pablo Dapena he returned yesterday to the competition in the challenge miami where he finished in 12th position

In a test with a very high level, Pablo has published the analysis of the test on his social networks.

"I'm happy to be racing again, but I'm not happy with the result and even less with the sensations.

Swimming very fought until the first buoy, I stay tangled in my arms and then I go back up until I leave the second group first.

In the transition I don't see my bike, I pass by and I have to go back, losing a few precious seconds that in the end ...

I go out on my bike with everything I have to try to hook the car of the train of glory ... two laps fighting until I get it but in a curve that I don't trace well and ... ciao ciao.
What to say, if it was possible that it was past no, the following.

Then well… just the whole race… Starky, Ditlev, Sanders, my teammate Chris, Butterfield pass me like real airplanes without being able to do anything. They already said it "This is triathlon and if you blink you are going to miss it"

With two laps to go, Starky, Ditlev and Frodeno double… it was a hard blow to the head, I won't deny it.

Well, that 56kms more only than one. Wishing to finish the bike and see if at least running saved the day but not even like that.

When I started to see myself in the race with Nick Kastelein and at a good pace, a flatus for 4kms has already sapped my morale ...

At the end 12, that there was a lot of level, that I have not competed since 2019, that it is very difficult for me at the beginning of the season ... I feel disappointed.

Today was a good opportunity to show how hard I have been over these months to get back to the level where I left off last time, but it was not like that.

This has just started, head upstairs and keep doing everything you can to improve. Time to analyze and draw conclusions. There is much to improve. "

From Triathlon News we send you a lot of encouragement and we hope to see you as soon as possible competing and enjoying to the fullest as you usually do.
