So this is the most important race I'll do this year. This is the Race For Life. It is organised by the charity Cancer Research UK. It's a great cause and an opportunity for people to raise money for a really good cause.
I had a great day and would recommend doing one of these with friends and family. It's a really fun event and very inclusive for everyone.

    So the one-sided SPD pedal is going to be LIGHTER than the SPD-SL. You're comparing a double sided SPD with a single sided SPD SL lol

    Good racing. It looks like that is a level above D as far as categories go. One thing is that appears that your trainer suffers from sticky watts. I really don’t think you’re doing it on purpose but that will be something to try to avoid.

    You are really good at racing by putting most efficient energy to max the result! Wow! I finished this stage by using avg 3.7wkg( 305w ) power! However I only ranked in 20th in that group.The guy using 3.2 wkg (avg)win the first place!!

    Hope your channel blows up man, appreciate the work you put in and its nice to see the proces/progress! Very decent times/speed man. I'm doing very similar speeds and have the ambition to do a triathlon once but currently am just training without an event in mind. As I can see it's quite a bit of hassle and planning on race day. How do you measure your watts (cycling)? I'm a zwifter myself and was wondering if the watt output outside is similar to in the app.

    • @JMower
      @JMower 10 днів тому

      Cheers pal! I have a power meter crankset, it came with my groupset but it's probably easier just to buy a set of power meter pedals. I think it's easier to put out more power outside, inside it's always so warm and that makes it harder to push the power without overheating

  • @letscrafttogetherdiy4989
    @letscrafttogetherdiy4989 22 дні тому

    I think the tombstone at the top of The Grade gives your FTP as 95% of your 20min average. So you probably averaged 282W up that climb for your 268W FTP. A 300W average up the climb will give you a 285W FTP, I think, but I could be wrong!

    • @lee-cycling
      @lee-cycling 21 день тому

      You're right. The average near the top of the screen whilst riding it is yor average for the KoM. Zwift then make a calculation based on that. If the climb takes you more than 20 minutes, it seems to use the old 95% rule to estimate your FTP. 268 is 95% of 282. As you take longer, I guess it will adjust that percentage upwards. As you go quicker, it will adjust it downwards. For example, for me it was 88% of the KoM average.

  • @vladfromfrance
    @vladfromfrance 28 днів тому

    Good video ! One think you could do for the half, trying to stay budget, is clip-on aero bars. They are relatively cheap and allow to get way more aero. You could also get aero socks for the bike leg, cheap upgrade that saves a few watts. My last comment would be regarding the sunglasses : I too have Oakley and they are great. I think budgety alternatives are again, the Decathlon offering ranging from 30 to 60€. Goodr also often come up as an excellent option.

  • @drumtoe
    @drumtoe 28 днів тому

    For the first triathlon, you can do a triathlon with swim trunks, running shoes, and a single speed bike. However, once you come to love triathlon, then you'll realize that a disc wheel /aero wheel cover is a must, as well as an aero helmet, no matter the distance. When you look good you feel good. Also,.for the run, if it's such a short race, you don't need socks. Happy racing.

  • @GarethMG1
    @GarethMG1 Місяць тому

    Good luck, Jarrod. My unsolicited advice would be to pay attention to how your stomach feels during the run. I've found gels can give me a bad stitch-like feeling when really pushing on a run. That's not uncommon when you add a bunch of carbs (this is why Maurten is now so popular). Personally I've found drinking my carbs and electrolytes along the ride to be helpful in prep for the run. Either way, you'll learn what to do or not to do for your 70.3.

    • @JMower
      @JMower 29 днів тому

      Good advice! I've been training with various gels and found that the sis ones don't bother my stomach too much. Also I'm probably going to take a gel before the run starts so hopefully it'll be able to be absorbed before running starts
