Hi folks, welcome!
When training for triathlons, performance on the bike depends on power-to-weight ratio, with drag being somewhat less important.
For the swim, performance depends on power-to-drag ratio, with weight being essentially unimportant (except for buoyancy and warmth).
Either way, as you age you’ll slow down, but that doesn’t mean you can’t give youngsters like Greg a run for their money, for a while at least.
I look forward to Greg dropping me in the swim at the 2014 Eagleman Half Ironman - I know he can.
