El mundial de triathlon aterriza en el país del sol naciente. Desde Japón nuestro embajador Fernando Alarza nos cuenta como será la prueba y su estado de forma.

 

Fernando Alarza se declara “un enamorado de la cultura japonesa”, por lo que siempre “es una alegría venir a competir a un país como Japón”. Además, Fernando tiene como gran objetivo a largo plazo culminar este ciclo olímpico con su presencia en los Juegos de Tokio 2020, con lo que todo añade motivación extra para la tercera prueba de las Series Mundiales de triatlón.

Este sábado, la cita es en Yokohama, ciudad donde Fernando competirá por quinto vez, así que conoce bien las características especiales de esta prueba: “un circuito peculiar, una climatología determinante por la humedad y un público entregado y muy agradecido a lo largo del recorrido”.

 

Tras el formato sprint de Gold Coast, regresa la distancia olímpica con un circuito de natación a dos vueltas, un circuito de ciclismo de 9 y un último sector de carrera a pie de 4 vueltas. “Para mi, Yokohama siempre suele ser una de las carreras más duras del Mundial debido a las condiciones de humedad de la zona”, señala Fernando. El perfil del circuito es bastante llano y técnico, lo que hace que las arrancadas en el sector de bici sean las que más endurezcan la prueba. Es por ello, que estas semanas previas, en el plan de entrenamiento, Fernando haya trabajado con más intensidad sobre la bici, disputando incluso algunas carreras para ganar consistencia en este sector.

Fernando es optimista de cara a la carrera, “llego en un estado de forma bastante bueno”, y mantiene su ambición respecto a la general de las ITU World Series: “el objetivo es seguir sumando puntos para seguir entre los mejores del Mundo. Cualquier punto es bueno y valioso para afrontar la segunda parte del campeonato en la mejor posición posible”. Esta vez, además de la ‘triarmada’ española, uno de los rivales a batir será Jonathan Brownlee, que sí es de la partida en esta cita. Habrá que hacerlo muy bien en cada sector para repetir presencia en el podio, sobre todo -avisa Fernando- en la carrera a pie, “que este año están siendo muy rápidas y decisivas”.

Fernando compite este sábado 13 de mayo a las 6:00 am (hora española).

Yokohama, a special appointment for Fernando Alarza in the third round of the World Triathlon Series

Fernando Alarza declares himself “a lover of Japanese culture”, so it is always “a joy to come to compete in a country like Japan”. In addition, Fernando has as a long-term goal to culminate this Olympic cycle with his presence at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, so all adds extra motivation for the third event of the Triathlon World Series.

This Saturday, the meeting is in Yokohama, city where Fernando will compete for the fifth time, so he knows the special features of this race: “a peculiar circuit, a climate determined by humidity and an enthusiastic and grateful spectators along the way”.

Following the Gold Coast sprint format, the olympic distance returns with a two-lap swimming circuit, a 9-round cycling circuit and a final 4-lap run section. “For me, Yokohama is always one of the toughest races in the World Cup due to the wet conditions in the area”, says Fernando. The profile of the circuit is quite flat and technical, which makes harder the race because of the dashes in the bike sector. This is why, in the previous weeks, in the training plan, Fernando has worked more intensively on the bike, even disputing some races to gain consistency in this sector.

Fernando is optimistic about the race, “I am in a very good shape”, and maintains his ambition regarding the overall ITU World Series: “the objective is to continue adding points to be among the best in the World. All points are good and valuable to face the second part of the championship in the best position possible”. This time, in addition to the Spanish ‘triarmada’, one of the rivals to beat will be Jonathan Brownlee, who is of the start list in this event. Everything must be perfectly done in each sector to repeat presence on the podium, but above all -Fernando says- in the foot race, “which this year are very fast and defining”.

Fernando competes this Saturday May 13 at 6:00 am (Spain time).
