Our athletes Yvonne van Vlerken and Thomas J. Vonach have set up their winter training residence in Hawaii this year. In addition, Mario Erath – another athlete – has now joined their training group. As a first form test, they competed in the MANGO MINI MONSTER TRIATHLON last weekend.
On February 13th they tried to solve the mystery of who is the fastest skinfit athlete at the moment by participating in the MANGO MINI MONSTER TRIATHLON. A few things seems certain: Thomas can out-swim Yvonne by 16 seconds over a 1,6km swim; Mario is about one minute behind Yvonne in the water; Thomas beat Yvonne by 32 seconds on the bike while Mario lost 2:25 minutes to his coach; Yvonne showed the two guys who is boss during the half marathon and outran Thomas by 33 seconds and Mario by 2:25 minutes. Easy right?
All in all it means that Thomas might be in the shape of his life or how else do you explain the 33 second lead at the end of the day? ;) Thomas finished in 4:14:59 h with Yvonne a tiny 33 seconds behind and Mario 6:51 minutes back.
Congratulations to all three and may the internal fighting about who is in better shape at the moment continue.
