    Theo, absolutely smashed it! I'm a triathlete as well, done many olympic triathlons and plan to do my first 70.3 next year. One rec though - maybe get a tri bike for your next race! Its better suited for triathlons than road bikes and more aerodynamic. Also, speeding up the transitions can help as well (e.g. no socks for the bike, mounting the bike shoes on the bike like this you dont have to walk awkwardly with the cleats to the bike and do a flying mount, etc.) Wish you the best on your next race and happy training! Would love to reach out to you for a chat as well if you're keen

    Hey Theo super inspiring video, I remember when my dad did his first triathlon 10 years ago, since then he’s now coming up on his 10th Ironman. When he started he never imagined getting this far but I truly believe you will get that far too Theo, your work ethic is a true inspiration to all of us. Fantastic job!!!

Remarkably, you pulled it off, you genuinely have the mindset of a hyper athlete and I believe you will be able to eventually do a full Ironman. 2nd I've been on a struggle lately trying to decide what I should do next year as a sport going into Uni and even though I am not sure if I can pull it off you have just inspired me to get into triathlons and hopefully in a few years if you still doing an Ironman I would love to have the privilege to race with you and meet you.
