Awesome performance Lewis, you're going to take some major steps forward with more experience, looking forward to following your journey! From behind :D
Thanks so much mate, I really appreciate that! If you’ve got any tips on getting the bike anywhere even close to your standard that’d be great! Seem to get it wrong every time haha 😂 can’t wait to see how you go in Roth as well dude, I’m sure it’ll be an amazing experience and an even better performance from yourself! 👊🏼
Nice video buddy, good to hear how you got on I did the Grafham as my first half Ironman came out with a 5:18 so not near you boys but a lot of learning for me …really enjoyed. It definitely gonna hit 70.3 is as my target racing … it’s not until you do an actual race start learning with your weaknesses and strengths are. I had an amazing bike let myself down on the swim and the run so guess that’s what I’m focusing on… outlaw full before that 🤪
Do like the dual camera set up when you’re talking, makes it more dynamic 🔥
Thanks mate! Appreciate the feedback! Makes the editing process a bit longer but definitely worth it haha 😂
Another sick video mate! Well done 👊🏻👊🏻
You’re too kind! Thanks mate! 🥰
Dude 29 min swim is super solid. Great race regardless.
Thanks so much dude! Yeah I’m super happy with 29 mins, wasn’t expecting anything under 31 to be honest!
Great result! You should be proud of yourself! Did you try wetting yourself on the bike this time? 😅
Thanks so much mate! Yeah I did… it was horrible I can’t lie 😂 probably too much info but my cycling shoes don’t smell too pleasant now either haha 😂
Lionel Sanders hasn’t done bad off a shit diet 😂 Great video and good honest review 🤙🏼
Hahaha, that’s a good point! Maccies before every race it is! 😂 thanks dude, and thanks again for letting me use some footage, I really appreciate it! 👊🏼
Still not a bad race regardless! If your cycling shoes fit well they should be fine to ride with no socks. Sometimes not easy getting stocks onto wet feet!
No definitely not bad in the slightest! I’m super happy with the overall performance! I’ve never had any issues with my shoes feeling too uncomfortable so I assume they fit okay, I’ll have to give it a go. You’re absolutely right, socks are not easy at all to get onto wet feet, especially when you’re trying to rush haha
What do you think of the Altra Vanish Carbon?
I really like them actually! They feel a lot stiffer than the vanish tempos, but with a similar shape to them. Almost like a middle ground between the vanish tempos and escalante pro racers which I love! Definitely going to be what I race in for a while I think
@@LewisFordham Sounds nice!! I also really enjoy the Tempos, Escalantes and the old Vanish-Rs, so will be very interesting:)
