2 жыл бұрынGTN's very own Heather Fell takes on Manon from GCN in an inter-channel showdown for the ages! Can Manon hold her advantage from the bike? Or did Heather manage to limit her losses well enough to keep her within striking distance for the run?

@sethgriffiths6539 2 жыл бұрын
Great effort from the ladies, super impressed. But I do have to support Manon here because bikes are only about 3 times faster than runners, not five times! This scoring favoured runners. The ratio should have been 1 point for every 33m for runners and 100m for the bike.! Would have meant that Heather still won by 9 points rather than absolutely thrashing her and potentially made it a more interesting race for Manon to push Heather to the very wire.

Great video but point for the run where to high Heathers ran at 15.8 Km/h and if you factor in the distance difference per point of 5 to 1 and multiply the run speed by this that would mean a ridding speed of 79km/h just seems a little bit to much in favour of the run.
@themindgarage8938 2 жыл бұрын
35 minutes vs 15, so if you're going to convert like that you'd get 34kph which is much more sensible.
@jackmajhand9463 2 жыл бұрын
But there is a main difference between running and biking. The power/speed relationship is linear for running whereas it's squared for biking (a 20% increase in power will lead to a 20% speed increase for running and a 9.5% speed increase for biking). When you factored that in a ratio of 3 would be better. (I get a ratio of 2.9 exactly when considering that biking is 2.5 times faster than running)
@themindgarage8938 2 жыл бұрын
@@jackmajhand9463 Yes I totally agree (although actually for biking it's a cubic relation), but a typical real duathlon has about the same duration of bike and run (usually it's 5/20/5 or 10/40/5) which makes the run more important, and also means you should run at a slightly higher intensity than you bike.

Now that they know the speed differences, they can adjust the distances to get "even" times and race again. But have them ride the full distance, get off the bikes, then run around a track. It'll be a true, head-to-head race at that point.
