jesus lionel was flying

[@ironmantooltime]

Relatively Lucy's performances at Kona over the last three years have been much better, though to be fair she's never held the long distance record 😉

[@kenchi7686]

She living a dream. But well deserved.

[@davewatts3822]

Lucy, how could you eat the chocolates before the pro am race? Or did Reece convince you it was a good idea in an attempt to slow you down. It was great meeting you both. You're a wonderful couple. See you in Daytona next December? #1 @ Kona 2020

[@2000triathlete]

What kind of doggie is that? What a cutie. Great vid too.

[@scottdrake8624]

Jack Russell

[@aarongalster1814]

Any thoughts on doing more races in America?

[@jeffreysanders4799]

Come to IM Frankfurt Lucy!

[@gunaseelanm3479]

Lionels crossing you in the track !

[@ReVoltaire]

Would have been a GUd touch if Sir Charles Barkley had presented the awards to Lucy Charles-Barclay

[@AaaAaa-ry4ji]

Love that girl

[@chrisbarbz9238]

Lola's just going crazy for that toy bone.

[@digitalbrother834]

This is the Kona-dog? Cute!

[@travisjeffrey9509]

Plenty of disclaimers in this video of "why I didn't expect to win" - I'm sure it is difficult to have the pressure to win, but ultimately if you signed up for the race and chose not to do the prep needed than that's on you.

[@pulsefitness6044]

Travis Jeffrey agree! Although sometimes it’s not just about winning. This was a fantastic opportunity to race in a unique format, raise money for charity and spend a little more time with the age groupers.

[@ronangriffin7218]

Lucy why do you race so much during your winter? (ie parkrun and XC) Should it not be more focused training for the season ahead. Im not questioning your methods but rather my own. Thanks

[@pulsefitness6044]

Ronan Griffin we wouldn’t class parkrun as a race, it’s incorporated as a weekly tempo run. XC races are for variety and mostly about fun. We do not treat them the same way we would for a triathlon event.

[@ronangriffin7218]

@@pulsefitness6044 Thanks for the reply. But as far as TSS is concerned would parkrun and XC not be almost as high as a race?

[@pulsefitness6044]

Ronan Griffin No, because it’s far less distance than even a sprint distance triathlon and it is kept to tempo effort, not all out.

[@mikedickerson3944]

Need more dog video.
