      The fact this only has 6.5k views is a travesty. This is a tremendous achievement. I’ve recently got into triathlon after learning to swim last year, so far I’ve failed at 2 open water swims but remain determined to finish one soon.
      Watching this has me super inspired.

    refreshing content. This guy is one of the best out there in the fitness space. Always posts quality content, no BS marketing or broscience, and he promotes a great message about fitness and mental fortitude rather than just aesthetics.

    Gymsharks “mini documentaries” are so good. I can’t believe they aren’t more popular because the quality and content is just unreal

    I have done the double and the triple. What makes Fergus so impressive is I sit around 65-68KG (44 years of age) so light on feet, lighter up the hills, but my squat is only 100KG 1RM. His a big dude, so this event is chllanaging the bigger guys, weight may move weight but light weight makes better efficent power. So hats off to you. The Brutal routes are just that Burtal, claire and James put on a great event. Remember the race never ends, until it ends!

    Incredible film.
    I was really surprised to see the electronic shifting on a double extreme Ironman. The shifting is buttery but you run the risk of it failing - though it’s a low risk, it’s lower if you use mechanical.

    Super impressive but at some point you have to ask yourself am I pushing myself like this to positively enjoy the suffering/challenge that comes with long distance triathlons/ultras, classic for endurance athletes, or am I doing this because I just want to just suffer and let people see me suffering…. For me this sort of thing becomes a bit more the later. I say this as an experienced long distance triathlete ( 12 completed and counting). Feel like Fergus needs to stop proving and hurting himself (mentally more than physically) so much and take on challenges where he can suffer but also enjoy the experience. Just my 2c here…best wishes anyway. Cheers
