    I used to be just a runner that could run a half marathon at a pretty good pace. I found GCN after starting my training for a triathlon when I could barely make half distance (12.5 out of 24.9 miles) on the biking portion without felling like my legs were going to fall off. Many of these videos helped change how I train/how I bike during a race and I just did a ride yesterday that was 120% of the race distance for triathlon biking at race pace (30 out of 24.9 miles) and I even felt great enough to run most of the 10k (6.2 mile) run immediately afterwards. With the help of GCN's videos, I am well ahead of what I thought was ever going to be possible with my current level of fitness. Thank you GCN!

    Guys, the swearing in Italian cracked me out of laugh I must say, so out of the blue. Although I have to point out for your knownledge @GCN that the first bit is consider a pubblic offence here in Italy (for real, I am not jocking even though is rarely rarely pressed as charged) and it could lead to some form of shadow ban or demonitization of the video, if someone presses the report buttom, I am afraid

    • @ritrattoaziendale
      @ritrattoaziendale 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah i pissed my pants laughing, but actually it's pretty harsh talking in a public video, i don't think it's a good idea by them to leave it audible, I'm sure many people (not me) may be offended and hit the report button.
