Love these kind of videos. I've got the elitewheels ent 2.0 as a second wheelset for my gravel bike and they are so good. My next step will be building a road bike around them. I really hope they keep these quality products at low prices and don't go the premium only route.

What is the Garmin mount called you have on your bike? the one with two clip ins? And what type of garmin alarm is that you mentioned?

try some knock off team jersey like the Ineos in 2:37 or some UAE knockoff jersey and reveiw the quality lol

You can buy e really cheap cable that you rant about if that is only the issue. It is standard band or watch charging cable. So for 1$ more on top of 31$ problem solved :) I keep my cables on the bike that I need on the field. I just don't like magnetic cable on the bike when you are off road, it will slip away instead of charging it... And you count on it that it is charging your light when you need it. And it charges slowly lol Guess for the road bike it is ok. Nice video :)

It´s not a sprint it´s not a marathon it´s an iroman 😂

Cool video Mike! We are living in the same city I guess. I’m training for a full Ironman but give myself 3 years. Success!

"I wake up at 6:30 spend 15 minutes on my phone and at 7:45 I get up and take shower". Is your shower 1 hour walk away from the bedroom? =)

I finally made a cameo!!! Keep up the hard work!

Sorry if you already answered to this, but why not start with an Olympic distance triathlon ? I'm also starting the sport, and will try to increase the distance gradually

great channel. What the name of the app where you track your training?

You're channel is criminally underrated. I'm really enjoying it, please keep it up! :)

I'll be filming a Q&A video soon, so if you have any questions, you can write them here and I'll answer them in the next video 😇

really inspirational video. I'm working on getting fit myself but... i wonder why you wont go swimming in the rain, you pool is wet already.

BUY A POOL BUOY. The easiest thing a beginner swimmer can do is use one. It will help your buoyancy so you dont get tired trying not to sink. It will keep your hips higher in the water which will help your speed in the water and teach you the correct position in the water. Do your warm ups. Use the pool buoy for moat of your laps. And then take it off for the last 10mins or so. FOCUS on keeping your core tight and body straight and level.

Which 70.3 would you be participating?

Hi!! Could you explain why did you choose to do fasting? What are the benefits?? Thanks!!

Im watching all of your vids rn. Really love especially cause im having similar goals as you and im also in Saigon.

I would recommend a bike fit before buying the bike to know what size and adjustments you need to make to make it really comfortable, it could even save you money in the end.

hey you in saigon? Im in D2 as well and just started training for a 70.3 as well.

20 laps is 1k not 2 but enjoyed the vid. going for 100 laps is pretty bonkers!

Good stuff! I just signed up for my first triathlon and have 8 months to do the same for a 70.3.

I did an Ironman 70.3 in June and my advice would be to not compare yourself to others! It was a problem of mine during my previous triathlons, and only at the 70.3 finish line I appreciated my effort and the fact that, bloody hell, I finished this thing (even if I was the last female to do so)!! Also I would suggest to sign up for at least one shorter distance triathlon before the 70.3 to get some practise of the race environment and how the three disciplines feel back to back🙂 Good luck for your journey!

Im doing 70.3 Victoria CA. I set 36 weeks of training but in last 3 years I have done open water and 2 full marathon distance. But I support the idea from someone that has 0 biking experience

Very good video. Enjoyed it a lot!

Hi man, do you work or you have full free time to do that ironman ? because the prepa is a lot of time

Dont aim for a half ironman, go for the full distance! Otherwise you can't call yourself an ironman. You can do it in 10 months for sure. Aim high!

here's a life changer for some: i've managed to find some clear goggles with a correction (-2.0 for me) for 20 quid

Where are you living?

What’s your current swim pace?

I am running my first 10 k this Sunday . Why do you have such goood video editing and. Shooting by the way

Keep up the great work! Can I ask what 70.3 you are signed up for?

I am also learning how to swim for a olympic triathlon. Great video and series

This series is awesome. Keep up the great work, you have been so motivating for me.

High quality video, especially given your channel is so new. I’m sure this will blow up soon

You need to be sure to progressivly overload for training. Dont go from 30-45min to 3hrs. You need to build up to that.

Sorry my friend but a 70.3 distance triathlon is not an "Ironman".. But the Ironman company organizes 70.3 (half distance) events as well as 5150's, which is a a 1/4 distance event. A Ironman full distance event is a 3.8 swim/180Km bike ^& a full marathon run.. & don't worry, if you live a sensible lifestyle you can still do these at a much older age, (I'm 55..) Better to spend another year conditioning yourselve & learn the correct biomechanics, then to overextend. You can do permanent damage from poor technique at any age.. If anything, enjoy the process.

les goooo

Good luck with your challenge. Based on where you’re at, I’d suggest getting some swim coaching as soon as you can. It sounds like you are holding your breath / not breathing out underwater whilst swimming and that’s why you’re getting tired. Having completed a 70.3 and other longer individual events (5km swim, 200km bike, 50km run) I’d suggest in addition to swim coaching, you build your time on the bike. 90km as a standalone event is not unachievable for someone with a base level of fitness but being fresh enough for the half marathon requires an efficient swim and coming off the bike in decent shape.

Holy gatekeeping about the distance in the comments. Don’t get so butthurt about calling a 70.3 an ironman. Nobody normal cares

Oh this is a 70.3. well thats entirely different to the long distance. A 70.3 you can do any weekend with some decent fitness. A full ironman you cant.

Go for it mate, good luck! Will follow along 🙌

The quality of filming, editing and communication skills on this channel is ridiculously good for a channel with such few subs. You deserve way more, and I'm looking forward to following your journey. Im in for a full Ironman in 11 months aswell

Best of luck dude! Just watched the video and wanted to share some feedback as someone who just started doing triathlons this year. - Get specific with your race because I was confused by your video - are you doing a full Ironman or a 70.3? Because you keep saying Ironman, I feel like you mean a 70.3 or a half. - Personally, I'd say running a marathon in several months when you said you haven't done any training is almost foolish. Have you at least done any 5k, 10k, or half-marathon races yet? A Full mara is a huge undertaking and it's a big goal in itself. I just don't see how it can benefit training for a 70.3, in which you need to run a half-mara. - You aren't great at swimming and yet you are signing up for 5 kilometer ocean swim??? a 5k swim is NOT like a 5K run, at all. 5K swim is A LOT. Again in a 70.3 you only need to swim 1.9K and that's a solid distance in itself. You just don't need to do that if you real goal is a 70.3. - I highly recommend instead of doing all these huge individual sport races, sign up for a couple of sprint and olympic distance triathlons. This will help you SO MUCH more than a marathon and a 5k swim. I'd bet you be in for a humbling surprise after an Olympic distance. - I would recommend to evenly split your training each month instead of focusing on one sport every month and leaving the other two as an afterthought. Triathlon is one sport and you should train for it as such. - Please don't sign up for a Tour de France as your bike race haha :)

A piece of advice, don’t skip the weight lifting days in your training. That strength will be important to keeping some muscle and injury prevention. Two days of full body per week are sufficient. You can go down to one day as the race gets closer. Most every plan has this built in but many people skip this to their detriment. Other than that consistency is the key. Follow the plan and you will do great.

Sleep and recovery is best fro iron man
