Well done Kelly, it's so nice to watch a youtuber who is really enjoying the challenge and embracing the moment. For someone who learnt to swim as an adult and do their first tri swim in the ocean is very inspirational, looking forward to watching your next event 😀
You inspire me every day. Well done on your first Tri. You left your comfort zone and achieved something that most won’t. Supporting you even made a little bit of me want to give one a go too 😂❤
Never say never! 😉 thank you, appreciate you and your support always. More often than not, we need the belief of those around us to embrace those scary things head on ❤️
Well done kelly, that feeling of accomplishment is second to none, all the hard work, training and you got the medal. Ive done this race, hated the sea swim, loved the bike course, the hill was a killer! And the run was what it was, its not an easy race for a 1st triathlon, so kudos for crossing the finish line, and great to have the family support too.
Absolutely amazing Kelly, well done u, Iv done a few tris now and iv not done a sea swim yet, im a swimmer and I’d even find that daunting so well done indeed 💪 💥 xx
Loved this! I can’t say you’ve made me want to do one - that swim looked really tough! - but I’m in awe of your mental mindset to stick with it despite so many things not quite going to plan! Huge well done and it’s so good to see your vids back; I love them. I also kind of think you should do a podcast! (Might be a bit much to add to the already busy schedule but I’d listen!!!) Really well done; fab effort! ❤
@@KellogsOnTheRun 🤣🤣 that’s why it’s so impressive. Unless I’ve got the sides of the swimming pool to cling onto when I need a rest I’m not doing it! Open water swimming is scary!! You’re hardcore!
Well done, Kelly, you done better than me with swimming in the sea. I did try swimming in River Thames,but had a panic attack. Can I suggest why not try Henley sprint triathlon, swim is in a pool. The cycle route is two laps local, but has a few hills,but not so bad. The run is around the playing field. Just a thought for you.
Great blog and well done 🎉 I had the same experience with the swim element when I did it back in 2013. Only had 1 swim practice and on the big day struggled with the swim. Had the wrong wetsuit type too 😂😂 All the wrong gear and no idea ha ha Tip to avoid goggles steaming up though is to put spit into your goggles and that really helps avoid them steaming up. Worked a treat for me many times. Great 1st tri and you are amazing :)
Well done Kelly - why were the swims so badly measured !!! I have never done a sea swim 😮 . You are very brave and strong - fantastic effort. Westonbirt has a lovely triathlon......."tri" that one maybe 😃
Thank you 😊 I’ve no idea Claire. Pretty rough though, especially for the middle distance athletes 😰 Westonbirt looks great, unfortunately have another event day before so a no go for me this time x

I am in awe of your determination. So happy you completed this. You are amazing. Congratulations 🥳🤩🥰
Amazing Kelly! Really pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone. Huge respect. So happy to see a new vlog ❤❤
Thank you! ❤️ there was not one piece of comfort in that sea zone 🤣

Yes, for most of us runners the swim leg is the most daunting. Congratulations on fighting the urge to give up on the swim. You are a triathlete!!
So daunting , especially when you’ve learnt to swim as an adult. It’s not natural 🤣 thank you! 😊
Fantastic! Well done!
Thank you!
Very well done 💪🦸

awesome, Lydney triathlon in October? A nice pool swim.
Definitely will give it a go sometime. Not this year, as will be running Chicago marathon week after 🏃♀️ 🇺🇸
Brilliant Kelly, well done 💪💕
Thank you! ❤️
Welcome to triathlon! Awesome stuff! You did better than I did on my first! Keep it up, it gets in your blood!
I can see why it does, I LOVED it! Thank you 😊
Great blog and well done 🎉
