I'd love to have discovered triathlon in my teens and early twenties (now 51!). I started training/competing in triathlon 12 yrs ago and it has made a real difference to my fitness and his re-ignited my love of exercising outdoors. It seems for Ruth (and probably most pros..) that leaving full-time work is the single biggest improvement you can make, possibly for any & every sport but particularly triathlon. Good luck, I'll be following your progress!
Anyone else just distracted by how lovely Ruth's home is. Does she live in an old castle... the Astle Castle?
yes, that kitchen is amazing.
I was alos thinking that. it is a beautiful home
sorry to be off topic but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can give me.
@Krew Anderson Instablaster :)
@Moises Mohamed thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thank You, Global Triathlon Network ! Great video :))
Love this!!! Please do more videos like this!!
Great video...looking forward to seeing more of these and the journey!
Thanks for creating and sharing this video. This is one the best parts of our beloved sport, the community.
As with most cases of people become a success in another career it typically stems from having been successful in another sphere which gives you the financial buffer to not have to worry about where the money is coming from. Had she been someone who just worked down the local pub or had a low level office job she wouldn’t have so easily got to the point of being able to turn pro.
Great content, love this channel!
Great work! Great athlete! Great format!
Feel super sorry for you Ruth with all those Covid-Stuff, wish you all the best for the rest of the season!
Raspanyardo thank you!
Really enjoyed this video, superb insight and Ruth comes across brilliantly. It would be great to see some follow up videos here on GTN.
Toon _85 thank you!
Absolute pocket rocket!! 👍👏
Is it viable for @GTN to hire her as a part timer as i would think she will provide a new angle as a new pro vs former pro.
Great video! Ruth definitely looks like I a wonderful person with just the right attitude. And I definitely recognise her love-hate feelings towards swimming. Best of luck for her!
Pinja-Liina Jalkanen thank you!
Every time I see scenes from Yorkshire (and UK's countryside), I always feel the urge to move back to the UK. I even forget how much it rains!
this is great and really reflects well on ruth. also the video's a good format for gtn.
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Chris Dawes thank you!
She’s amazing - mind of a champion. I know she can stay in champ mode while being more kind to herself, hope she will 🙏
Great video😀
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Definitely in love with Ruth ! Hope she does well against veterans in future races.
printhisvideo thanks!
Great insight, she's got a great attitude, good luck Ruth
JonRidesBikes thank you!
Interesting long shoe covers!
Deja vu, did you guys re-upload this video?
Definitely a re-upload
Hi guys, this is a re-upload, we spotted an error in the original. Thanks
Me too I feel relaxed after swimming but feel pressured but why do u still go to the pool during the pandemic?
Hi there - Just to clarify - this was filmed earlier this year. No one is currently swimming in pools in the UK, unfortunately.
Pandemic....mmmm its pretty average pandemic
Scenery looks fantastic for cycling! Where is this?
J C the bits filmed recently are Yorkshire
Ruth Astle thanks! Good luck with your training and racing. Hope to see you take the overall win at Kona one day 👍🏻
Now in my sixties I don't think I will be a pro
how cool is Ruth's house?
Rembicycle unfortunately not my house but thanks!
@@Reastle1 Alistair's?? 😉
Ooo shout out to Chia Charge!
You know. Those "old" athletes. In their 40's. 😞
Old for a pro, that’s what she meant didn’t she ?
May I ask when this was filmed?
Hi, this was filmed much earlier this year, way before the current climate 🙂
pretty sure i have watched this a few months ago. Time travel?
bikeanddogtrips same...
:D
first!
What’s the problem of the person who disliked the video?
Iss 1.22 hour time good for 800 m swim 20km 10km run good time for 14 year old kid
Mr. CJ YT don’t overthink it. Keep doing the good stuff. You can go Pro too 👍🏻
