VR CLUB yea totally, what a pro!
the kona vlog is gonna be IMMENSE! great job heather 😁
kona==hydrate hydrate hydrate 😓 😰 😨 😱 😵 🤘
But don't OVERhydrate. One of my athletes ( a 50+ age group contender) drank too much, and had waterpoisoning in Kona last year. He finished, but was sent to hospital for a couple of days..
was it due to to much h20 and too little sodium? its not enough to hydrate if the relative amount of sodium and other important minerals get too low..
Heikki Sanelma right, i had to revert from a previous low salt diet due to too many cramps. i took salt tabs for ironman. just testing now if cutting out booze is a factor...
I know satisfaction with race results is a very individual and personal topic, but it sounds like an outstanding result! Congrats Heather, and best of luck with your final round of training leading up to Kona. You're going to kill it!
Well done Heather, fascinating stuff.
This vlog does more to promote the sport (and channel) than anything I've seen, bringing your personality and a sense of realism in watching someone you "know" compete.
More please!
Absolutely great Vlog. Looking forward to your next one. You are a natural at this. Really enjoyed it as well as getting some good tips. Well done.
If I had been in Heather's shoes for the post race interview, I think there would have been the opposite ratio of expletives:usable content. Probably something like 'Bleep bleep bleep bleeeeeeeeep bleep bleep bleep never again bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep'.
A job well done Heather! Great to see a vlog and have an insight of the final moments building upto the race!
wow I would be happy with a 1:37 half marathon in a half ironman, that is my PB but for a half marathon alone. Great job Heather, but hey, that’s why you’re qualified for Kona ! Have a great recovery, hope you’ll get to spend some good time in Hawaii
rskng well, 1'37 equals to 4'36 for a half marathon, which is a very good time. Even being just shy of 5 hours total is a very good time, many senior men would like a time like this, and in such a hilly course. As far as full IM time it's true many male age groupers tend to qualify with a sub10 time, but for women it's a pretty strong performance. BTW this year at IM Nice male in the 45-49 category even qualified with an 11 hour time (admittedly because of a great rolldown).
Wow, you must be one of the top women in the sport... I assume you are a woman since you are criticizing her qualifying time so specifically. All bow to rskng.... Thank you for gracing us with your commentary.
People like rskng are the ones that bring our sport down. smh
Haha looks like they deleted their own comment... running scared
Awesome video with an amazing insight! I loved the different style
@Heather!, I am so excited for you. I remember the first times I did 70.3 & off course my first Ironman @Klagenfort (Austria 2016). I Love the 70.3k race, it's an ultimate race in my opinion. but the 140.2k is one AMAZING and AWESOME adventure! (I'm doing Klagenfort again in 2019...) I sure will follow your vlog of your races! it's so cool! In a few days I'm starting my own vlog of the road to Ironman... hope you'll follow too when it will be on air! Goodluck on Kona! It's Going to be---- Legendary!!!
I'm 15 and want to get into triathlon, I have been cycling since I was 4 and racing since I was 12. Recently I got a bad sprain and just after that broke my toe today and still have a bit of recovery on that, but Heather you are just so inspiring and keep me exited for when I can ride again.
I just ran 7k in 38:45...the times and distances these iron men (and women) run, bike and swim in training and comp are superhuman for 99% of the population and continue to amaze me. Although I will never get close to your levels, Heather and Mark, and all the GTN guys. you are my inspiration that drives me to improve every day - thank you
Congrats Heather we are all so happy for you.....
love the blog. more please.
great race Heather, you should be proud. from my personal experience (running and cycling) i began to improve a lot in both speed and stamina when I cut out all meat and dairy from my diet and went completely vegan which allowed my body to process the foods i eat more easily.
I have found that eating a lot of beetroot daily from around 3 weeks prior to a race and having an avocado every day (except the day before) helps a lot with my endurance. I cant stand the taste of beetroot or avocado though, so they go in to a smoothie with bananas, mixed berries, mixed nuts and seeds, spinach and spirulina.
one more thing. every single kom or pb on strava that i ever managed (after reaching a plateau) has been from replacing water hydration with coconut water. Coconut water tends to hydrate more than normal h2o even with salt tabs.
I'm a little bit too old an inexperienced to be good, but you, Heather, are young enough and able enough to be great. Your Kona time will be sub 11 hours and you will be within the top 6 female athletes. Perhaps you should take Si from GCN with you to be your bike mechanic.
rambling over. enjoy your weekend
Love the vegan activism 2 years ago. Props to you bikeanddogtrips if you ever see this.
OMG I'm in the video! I'm one the bike catchers!!! Great race, Heather!
Best of luck in Kona. Keep doing more of these vlogs. We loved it!
That's why I like finishing near the bottom of the pack in all my tris. If you finish in or near the top ten, you spend a lot of time wondering what you could have done better, training super hard to improve. If you're like me, you just concentrate on having fun and getting some exercise. Plus, the cheering is always loudest for the last group of people because everyone else has already finished!
Please do as many of these as you're capable. They are so honest and valuable. Your frustration with being 11th and not 10th in your division is the same emotion that drives us to train to crack a goal.
Interested which non-athletic skills you find yourself using from your pentathlon background.
Great job, Heather! Don't worry about Kona, you'll rock it!
an amazing video! such a joy to watch. congratulations!
You can do it girl! Finishing Kona is such a life accomplishment. You can do it. Don't let the mind tell you that you can't do it!!!
As someone who raced as well I can vouch for how stressful the buildup was. You can see the stress and hear it in her voice.
Thanks so much for sharing your set up, etc. it really helps! Plus, we got to cheer for you!
Great video Heather!!! That post race interview was ,too me, your best on camera yet. It was the most relaxed and real Heather I've seen. Don't get me wrong you always do a great job on camera but that was the most unfiltered, natural you! I also like the fact you dropped a curse in there!!!
Well done Girlie and best of luck in Kona!!!!!
So excited! Go girl! Chattanooga Choo Choo!
She's simply awesome, isn't she? Keep up doing such great content.
Did the full Ironman in Chattanooga a few weeks ago. That run course is a beast! Nicely done!
Regarding the bike check - I never checked the rear wheel before any of the 10 races I'd done. Changed my habit two days ago before my 11th race, doing a last minute check at the car. Lo and behold, the tyre was rubbing the frame. Quick adjustment and we're set. Lucky me.
I live in TN. Chattanooga and most of East TN are tougher places to race Mid and west TN are out of the mountains. Good job on what you did.
The best GTN video by far. Honest no frills look at triathlon.
This is totally awesome insight into the build up to big races abroad! Really helpful and reassuring :)
You are a star! Filming and competing is a lot to juggle with a 6ish hour time change.
Great video! I might suggest that for those racing in Kona, your vlogs pre-race day might be a welcome watch before the race happens and then follow up with another video after the race. Keep the content coming and crush it in Kona!
Well done Heather. Im sure you'll go better at Kona.
Great blog
The hills here in Kona (at least the ones you will be on) aren't as long or as steep as the ones you did in Chatt. The swim is the best part of the day (enjoy watching all the fish, the dolphins have been scarce recently). On the bike, three things are guaranteed: There will be a head wind, The hottest part of the course is the climb up out of Kawaihae, and The most dangerous part is the ride down from Hawi (side gusts coming from the left to the right). On the run, it will be hot on the Queen K and the hill up from Makala to Palani never seems to end. Good luck and welcome to our Island.
Superb. Thanks for sharing your experiences at what must have been a hectic time.
Wow, I love the vlog! Great job, Heather!!!
Congrats Heather!💪🏻🎉
Heather, fantastic job on sharing logistics info and on your race. I’ve been watching more recent videos and stumbled on this older one. It was really cool to see a GTN athlete prepping and competing.
Vlog about races is super cool idea!
Great video and great job Heather!! The day you were doing that I was slogging through IM Wisconsin. I'm still recovering!
Fantastic result and video, I'm sure when you and your coach sit down you'll be happy with how it went. 11th in your age group is pretty good going given how competitive it was (World Champs!). Good luck in Kona, looking forward to another vlog like this.
Congrats on the result. I'm just working up to 1/4 distance so to me those splits are simply awesome.
Great vlog. Looking forward to the one from Kona and one from Mark maybe?
Great race, good luck in Kona!
Great Job Heather! Nice video too!
Like the blog style. Congrats. Keep it up
Vloggy stuff is really good. Enjoyed this.
Thanks for sharing your race experience with us!
Congrats and wish u all the best for Kona! ;))
Great video - nice work Heather. Glad to see pre-race nerves is ubiquitous and i'm definitely a fan of lists because my brain turns to mush in the build up to the race!!!
Solid effort!!!! U are FIT!!!!
Love the honesty!
Brilliant video!
Really enjoyed watching this - awesome result in my humble opinion...!
awesome stuff, loved this!
Awesome insight Heather! And nice race! Top job!
Lovely vid!
great video, thanks Heather! keep up the good work, well done!
Well done Heather! That is a great time! We are all too hard on ourselves, but that is what makes you great. Keep it up!
This was awesome. More of these vlogs please.
Brilliant insight into your race preparation and great pointers 👍😀🖖
Great video, looking forward to follow your Kona adventure with pure jealousy :-)
Major props! 👍
This is really cool. You guys inspired me to start training for a triathlon. That started today! 1mile in the pool! Keep up the good work.
Amazing job!
Great video. Many thanks
looking forward to your Kona Vlog!!
I really like this video =] It is way more personal than the GCN (and GMBN) vids.
great video.
Awesome video, good job!
What a great effort
A great and very honest film 🎥Good stuff
Great job!
I think stress can take a lot out of you so I'm not surprised it felt hard. Hopefully you can have a more relaxing week in the build up to future races.
LOVE IT!!!
Well done, Heather! Great work!
Well done, Heather!!! Good job!!
That's me at 8:33 passing off the bike
Really really good video. Love this kind of insight as it was what I was most nervous about when completing my first triathlon; not the fitnessy stuff, it was the logistics and not making a tit of myself. Good luck for Kona!
You all probably dont give a damn but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot the login password. I love any tips you can give me.
@Noah Sage instablaster =)
@Landen Emmitt thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Landen Emmitt it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my account!
@Noah Sage no problem xD
I almost watched all of GTN videos and this one came up on my screen. I am racing in 60 days in Chattanooga. 5:02 to beat. God help me!!
Bravo Zulu, Heather. Job well done!
Really good vlog, great to see that even at pro level there are nerves and hesitation.
Looks like a great solid result but as said in the vlog, room for you to improve. Well done Heather
This was really cool
This is what I wish GCN would do. Preparation vlogs and race day vlogs on the rare occasion they actually race. No hate all cheers though!
Congratulation heather. You rock👍👏💪🏊♂️🚴♂️🏃♂️
Tbh this was the first time I didn’t get bored watching one of Heather’s videos. I sincerely hope you can keep this energy, discourse prep, momentum, and, most importantly, usefulness in your future videos
Loved your pre and post race perspective, sending you the best of luck in Kona..... maybe something similar if possible? I'm currently planning for 2018 having qualified in Wales.
I live in Chattanooga, wish I knew y'all were coming!
Super impressive !
🤙
well done heather!
congrats, great job
That whole pre race week looked very stressful, I would have really struggled balancing that! See you in Kona!
Great one Heather!
01:37 that is quick though.
Luv thiss
6:48 love the bib shorts on the peg
It's not everyday that I happen upon my hometown on UA-cam! :D
I'm a simple man. I see Heather, I watch.
Well done Heather your rapid in the water
Heather Fell videos always have me like boomchickawowwow....
