John has a smashing run

John Hill had another superb race in Kona - his 13th!!!!! What a remarkable athlete.

He swam 1:10, cycled 5:14 and ran 3:17 for a 9:51 and seventh in his age - his final year in the 44-49 age group too!!

He looked in total control running for home as I headed toward the Energy Lab.

I think that may be a PB run in an Ironman for him - perhaps there is something to those compression socks after all - or perhaps it's a good thing to enter a 90km running race as part of one's preparation for Ironman!

No doubt JH will provide some comments on his race in the next few days.
