    Excellent video - my first 70.3. Living in London makes it quite hard to prep for the course, however cycling around Surrey and Kent certainly has prepped me for the hills. Thanks for the video!

    Thank you for the video. This is my first triathlon I will be doing so nice to see where all the hills are at

      Nice! Try get a sprint or Olympic in before so you can see how it all feels, Ironmans can be quite overwhelming if it’s your first!

      Hi lewis, great video, thanks for taking the time. What bike would you recommend for overall time on this course, bearing in mind profiles? Dedicated TT, or aero road. Cheers

      Lots of free speed to be found on this course!

    Just done the course, that climb from Parkmill to Lunnon is BRUTAL. Hit my peak 1 min all time power and then that decent from Lunnon to Ilston is frankly a joke, cannot believe thats been put in, so dangerous with the thin road, loose surface and blind corners. Everyone be super careful and steady there, wouldnt say thats the point to be looking to pick up speed.

    • @LewisfromYouTube
      @LewisfromYouTube  Рік тому

      Spoken to IM & the council about the decent, it will be fully swept before the race 🧹
      The hill…I love it! 👌🏻
