Congratulations Ruth and all your team. You can be very proud of what you achieved in the race, given all the challenges you have faced this year. It has been a huge privilege to be able to follow your journey!
Great race - limited running leading up to Kona, toughest field of pros ever in Kona and you came 12th! You are world class and thank you for sharing the journey with us! Well raced! Well placed!! Well done!!
Congratulations Ruth great performance and even better post race reflections. So pleased you can strong and finished happy. The women’s race and field is so competitive. In total awe.
Fricken AWESOME Ruth ❤ I had you locked in on the IM Tracker. I saw you smashing it at 9th place on the bike 🔥 12th in the whole WORLD 😮🎉 🌎 ❤ You had a whole squad of cheerleaders in the IM chat as well 🇬🇧
Fandabidozi Ruth and Team. Really enjoyed your video series from Kona and congratulations on maintaining that wonder smile thru the whole race. Superstar!
Thanks for all of the coverage; pre and post! You and India are hilarious together! I did a Machu Piccu race and I was alone for nearly four hours (not comparing the challenge, but the difficulty being alone and trying to push) on and after Dead Woman's Pass. Great job and hope you come back to Kona another year.
i love your videos Ruth, you have such a great personality and attitude!! well done, you impressed so much on that ride! cant wait to see what you do next year!!
Congratulations! Super well done Ruth, and even more impressive when taking your minimal run training into consideration. Oh yes, and Indy is gorgeous 😍
Haha - I googled it. Ruth is 11 and a bit pint glasses tall. 😂 By comparison Jan Frodeno would be 13 pint glasses tall, but of course the appropriate measuring units for Germans would be steins. … and if anyone is wondering Jan would be just over 9 beer steins tall. …
I’m a Brit guy living abroad in Asia. Haven’t had a British girlfriend for more than a decade. I miss their sense of humour ! Right, next girlfriend is British! Thanks for the reminder ladies 👌🏻
Ruth- this is the first time I have seen your videos, and I loved the camera work and hearing your thoughts. However, the word retard, in ANY sense is extremely offensive. Being the God parent of a young boy with Down Syndrome, your comment about the swimmer next to you is offensive to many people. Many people don’t know that word is so offensive so just a heads up
Thank you for the heads up - obviously wasn’t meant in any kind of offensive way but appreciate the impact words can have so thanks for pointing this out and I will try and be much more careful with my language in future

12 of the world you deserve a new subscriber 🎉
All for an indie and Ruth channel! Great race!
Well done Ruth! Amazing job out there. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Loved that I could be part of the historic event too. Was epic!
Well done Ruth! Also for getting this video out so soon.
Amazing effort!! Well done!
Great job, pretty impressive at 12th in my opinion considering the issues on the swim and your very low amount of running this year!

Well done Ruth although try not to use the 'R' word

Brilliant Ruth you smashed it 💪

Checking the results to see who Ruth came out the swim with 👀👀
enjoyed this real behind the scenes videos of your ironman performance Ruth. remember the sunscreen on your arms next time 😊
I had a lot of suncream on my arms, unfortunately the swim and sweat washes most of it off quite quickly!
Well done Ruth.
Great job Ruth.

Not sure what Jack has done with the audio on this, but 80g of Carbonara sounds insufficient for 140.6 miles of triathloning.
Please share your diet
Not here for the swim shots or language 😅
Well done Rastle on a super solid day 😊
If there was a swimmer next to you which you were not happy with, why not move to one side instead of staying put?
