Wow what an attendance

Fantastic numbers there today.

I'm not sure that one has made it into parkrun's official hand gestures guide yet 😂 Looks like you had a good number today. We were pretty busy too with almost 800.

Was in there somewhere 😅

Well done mate. Do I understand that end screen right that you put in more watts per kilo on average than all the guys in front of you? Id take that as a win personally. Good effort mate.

Zwift should add a collision mode lol 😂

Nice effort - enjoyed that 👍

Strong performance there Stu, 24 minutes on that trail course with elevation in there too. Prefer tarmac myself😊

That was good bud well done for sticking with the main group

👍 nice attempt, hard work never hurts

Nice work. Zwift races are brutal. I did 1 and said never again, haha.

Tough but fun!

Epic. Enjoyed that Stu. Zwift racing certainly makes you ride harder. Just needed a few more shots of your suffering 😂

Well done, glad you’ve found your mojo, the cold and dark definitely makes it hard to find! My 26 week plan for Bolton 70.3 starts Monday 😬.

Looks good to me, but you’re about 30secs/ 100 yards quicker than me 😅

That looked like a tough event Stu, the swim, the weather and the hilly course (and the 1km transition between swim and run), anyone who finished (or even attempted that) was a beast. It must have been extremely hard for the competitors to complete a marathon in progessively worsening conditions. Well done for making the journey to support your club mates. I'm still at a loss to understand how anyone does an Ironman. What's a Half Ironman, maybe I could aspire to do one of them says he optimistically...

Looking forward to watching the training over the next 6 months! 👍

Get that mojo! and Merry Christmas!

Nice mate. Keep up the strength and conditioning. Strong body, stronger race. It's good to hear the mojo is in a good place.

Best of luck with training

I’m also doing Leeds, will be first IM- looking forward too it.

Good luck with the training! I’m doing Leeds as well, I bet it comes around pretty quickly. I’m just started making videos 😊

Well done for getting out and just riding, your right we focus too much on all the other stuff

It's just about ticking off the sessions and getting them done mate. That's a long build to IM Leeds! JUst got myslef a new speedmax and can't wait to take it out when the weather arrives which will be a long way yet!

That consistency should really start to give you a good base to build on. Interesting to see how tri training compares to my run training. I feel like my running would go backwards if i tried that, and i cant afford to be going backwards 🤣

SBR Stu in "gets act together" shocker! 😅 Nice to see you in such a good place at this stage of your training mate. Wouldn't expect anything else from a proper Iron Man like yourself to be fair. Keep smashing it 💪

Great to see the IM build underway! S&C will be your best bang for buck to augment your swim bike run to go the distance. You’ve got a good mix of sessions but the looks of it. My Speedmax is waiting for its recall. Derby is my nearest authorised dealer but the shop is waiting for the modification kits.

Good luck with the weight goals dude! It's definitely tough, tougher than the actual training at times haha.

Thanks for this very insightful. I think the enjoyment of creating/vlogging comes first and whatever comes of that is a bonus and that comes across in this video. Nice to know how it works and definitely a helps.. I think we'd all like to get paid for what we love to do and not have to do our 9-5s 😂 but either way that shouldn't stop us from doing it in the first place. Nice one and well done on all your work 👏

Well done. Looks like perfect conditions..listening to that interaction you overheard got me thinking. I used to do parkrun with my daughter when she was 8yo most weeks. I occasionally had tears to contend with and tried to motivate her to get round. I never shouted but I often questioned myself for pushing her too hard at such a young age. She is small aswell but loved the attention and chatting to people on them she got to 28mins before covid stopped them. In hindsight the 5k was probably too much at that age and I think it put her off running for a bit until accompanying me on a few races recently and now at 14 and we are building up with short runs to doing parkrun again together soon. Be no shouting from me tho 🫡

How often to you practice bilateral breathing or breathing on your non dominant side? I'm trying to do that more to fix any imbalances.

Hi Stu, that looked like a cracking ride, I love riding off road and I think mixing up your training between running, cycling, swimming and gym is the way to go, especially for tri. I wonder if I could keep up on my mtb, nice lunch stop too at Hatton Locks😊

Always good to have some events to look forward to Stu, Ironman 2025 in Leeds eh, lots of hills methinks, then again I imagine Bolton was too. If you’ve seen my latest video, you know what’s on my horizon for ‘25😊

from my perspective, not enough mud grass and mountains mate... but seriously mate look nice and relaxed but im no swimming expert.....keep up the good work.

Just need some carbon plated goggles and you'll be flying mate 👍 😅

Stu, looking nice and relaxed during the above water recovery phase. Your underwater arm entry and pull can be improved to pull more water. If you look at early vertical forearm videos it'll show you how. The other main thing, which will be forever in swimming is streamline. Practice, practice, practice. Hold your streamline as tight as you can with a long controlled, tight body shape. Your legs flick out off streamline a lot during your kick so I'd use the pullbuoy as part of the session so you can raise your hips but concentrate on keeping your legs close together.

I don’t feel qualified to comment on swimming Stu. I spent years getting endless pool coaching and improved massively. It’s a great tool for sure. I found picking a couple of key techniques to focus on between endless pool filming very productive. Of course, change one thing and 10 other things need to change🤯🤣

Couldn't agree more Stu. We're not hear to make loads of money (well some of us aren't), and we get better as we go (hopefully). A little bit of money helps fund the journey and helps us make better videos. I'll get there eventually......

Professional athlete now

Bass player here, who was also doing Coventry Parkrun that morning!!

Can't beat a nice chilled parkrun. Although berry face wasn't happy that you were filming her in the car lol. Tell her not to worry. We all get hot and sweaty and zone put after a run. Coventry got many parkrun?

Great vid Stu, not done Coventry parkrun yet, need to get that one on the list! Sounds like one very pushy parent! 😦The person at the end sounded like they had put in a good shift too 😄

thanks for the insight Ive only just started doing tube and not in it for money but its nice to know the ins and outs of it.i use dii action 4 and MacBook Air m3 witch was a big investment tbh also use capcut witch is free or ddi mimo on iPhone also great are editer with copyright free music.making the vids is all about sharing my journeys and have another reason to get shoes on and out the door as I'm aging I find it more and more easier to finish work and doomscrolling's and cake lol keep it up fella I enjoy ya vids fella

had a few encounters like that parent myself and I'm sorry but I can't keep my opinion to myself and have told the parents it don't sound or look good in public and he diverted his anger at me witch is fine along as it took the heat off the kid for a few minutes then unfortunately I had to report it as it happened a few times at a certain park run poor lad,

I used to own a bass guitar. Wouldn't say i was much of a player though 😅 Our 'band' only ever played in my mate's mum's garage! Looked nice and warm out there for this one ☀️👍

Lovely autumn colours on that parkrun - well done both of you 🎉 And great to have a quick view of Ian and Iona too 👍

That dude was hacking up a lung at the end there.

Well done to the pair of you doing the park run, some parents 😞

Not sure if adults realise sometimes that a prepubescent child doesn’t produce anywhere near as much lactic as an adult, as they don’t have a fully developed anaerobic system required for harder sustained efforts until after puberty. I had a conversation about this topic with a parent recently who was unaware. This is why you see young children running in a cycle of wizzing off for ten seconds then walking. This is completely normal for a young prepubescent child and certainly nothing to do with the child’s lack of motivation.

I knew you weren't at XC 🤣🤣 I'm expecting you there at the next one, missed out on the homemade brownies 🍰🍰
