    Cody, I’m a big fan and I love all of your videos. However, I gotta say, I’ve been putting off watching this one. My uncle trained for two years for his Ironman, and he passed away during the biking portion of the race a few months back in September of 2023. He had a freak cardiac event and was one of the healthiest people I knew, only 50 years old. Watching this video has made me so incredibly emotional for a lot of reasons, but really it’s so amazing to see that you were able to complete such an intense triathlon. So because of Cody Trains.. and in honor of my uncle.. I’ve pledged to myself to make a complete lifestyle change and live healthier starting at the beginning of 2024. At 27 years old, I know my best days are still ahead of me. I’m already down 5 lbs and feeling so much better. You’re an inspiration to so many, keep it up 🫶🏼

    I think this video perfectly sums up what “energy is everything” means. Being surrounded by likeminded people, love, support, and inspiration. Very proud! I hope one day I can do this for myself as well.

    dude you’re an inspiration, you have no idea how much you’re motivating people with a drive to do better and work hard for something that means the world to them. I’ve been wanting to get more into the fitness journey of my life while also making time for the rest of my life and now it’s 2 am and i want to just go for a run and work for the shit i’ve been dreaming of. thank you bro you truly have pushed me more to get past all the obstacles lately and just push through into greatness

    I normally cry hearing "It's a Beautiful Day" because my dad raised me with his love for U2, so this had me bawling in an instant. Your family is just lovely, and you are incredible Cody! Might be weird because parasocial relationships are weird, but we're all super proud of you.

    I don't ever leave comments but I just got to say, as a fellow son of a dad who's been an Ironman, this is inspiring me to check that box too and do what my old man did. I can only imagine what it was like to see the look on your dad's face and say "that's my boy!" I'd like to see that face on my dad one day. Thank you, Cody.

    Cody you’ve inspired me so much with this series and watching you helped me to get motivated to start running. I was diagnosed with heart failure in 2020 and gained almost 100 pounds from having to be sedentary and all the medications and surgery. Today I’ve lost 70 pounds and run almost every single day and I love it. I’m getting my health and my life back and it all started with the motivation from you man. I hope you see this and know how much of an impact you’ve made on my life. Energy is everything!!

    This is so amazing. The fact that you can feel how much Cody cares about Ironman through this video is really something special. As well as the splicing together childhood memories. This is the truest form of art and it truly is admirable. Congratulations Cody on being an Ironman and a father (you have to say I love you 3000 to your children now). Thank you for the time & care you put into this video. Big up Cody, Austin, Matt, Thomas, Brooke, Dan and all others who worked on this for making this come to life!

    I remember being six years old and running the final quarter mile with my dad as he finished his Ironman in Phoenix. The picture of him and I crossing the finish line together, little kid having fun and completely exhausted dad smiling bigger than he ever has, hangs on my wall and has for over 15 years. Your ultramarathon video really got me going, as I had run my first marathon a year before that video came out. I was looking for the next thing. Recently trashed my knee and I’m starting to come back. Watching a comedian that I’ve been watching since the Vine days blossom into one of my favorite UA-camrs AND have the crazy tenacity that it takes to exercise on an elite level is incredibly inspirational. Thank you. Never stop. Energy is everything
