IRONMAN Leeds

Yeah, the training's actually going really well.

I have got an entry to Ironman Leeds for next year.

So I'm going to be doing Ironman Leeds, I think it's in August 27.

So that's really, I've got a few running races in March, April, May, which I'm going to use as a bit of a springboard into the year.

But yeah, Ironman Leeds is going to be my next target.

So yeah, the training is going well, mate.

I am religiously sticking to my promise of only doing one swim a week.

And then I've got all the time in the world to do biking and running as the week goes by.

And you know what? Ironman UK have been absolutely fantastic this year.

You know, they reached out to us early in the year, asked for some volunteers for Ironman Leeds.

So we said, yeah, we can provide you with some volunteers.

Could you do something for us? Like, yeah, of course.

And I wanna kick off by thanking the people who've written into me, people who have had questions over the year and now turning into people who are sending in thank you notes because they've completed their IRONMAN.

A bunch of people have completed IRONMAN Leeds over the summer.

Um, I'm playing catch up a little bit with, uh, with reading out the thank you notes that have been sent through, but it's so great to read so many people who have had this vision of themself, of this thing that they could do in the future.

Something that's big and it's terrifying and they don't even know if they can do, and they end up managing to complete it.

So first up, from Lee Cantrell, who says, "Hi, Rob.

I just want to say thanks for a great insightful podcast.

I completed Ironman Leeds last weekend and despite the disappointment of the late cancellation of the swim," which for listeners who don't know, unfortunately there was blue-green algae in the water there and the swim was canceled the day before the race.

"I leaned on so much advice from your podcast as a self-coached athlete.
