Really is an incredible metaphor for battling mental health and life in general, having that key support network around you is so crucial.

    This is incredible!!! I really appreciate your reflections on mental health, self development and suicidal thinking. I’d love to hear more about that. Triathlon has had a redemptive impact on my life having hated myself for so many years. I’m not out of the woods completely but things are way better now. Thank you for doing this and sharing your experience. You’re a force for the greater good in the world.
    I have been looking forward to this video coming out and it has way surpassed my expectations. It so happens that it’s the same day that I completed my first Olympic distance triathlon too, which seems synchronistic to me. Now planning my half Ironman next year. This is one of my favourite videos on the internet from my favourite fitness channel. Kudos and much respect Fergus 👊 👊 👊

    What a fantastic and terrifying watch. Brilliantly capturing the event and giving an insight to those of us who have yet to do it. I have no idea if it's possible for me to complete the Double but your video certainly helps me focus on what is needed to have a chance. Just a brilliant video and achievement.

    Physical health and strength is a tremendous blessing. In fact one only fully appreciates it when it is taken away. The same applies to mental health. Keep up the great work keeping yourself mentally strong and passing on the motivation to others!! Excellent videography to boot!

    Just started training for my first triathlon, with the end goal being an iron man in a couple years... But my god... You sir, are a monster! I really loved the chats through not just the physical impacts of this, but the mental too. Gives me some great tips that I can and will be implimenting within my own training!
