      @@ARMYALEX1869 I started running after 3 months before my first triathlon after smoking cigs and doing drugs for 25yrs. I had no swim experience and I owned a Trek hybrid I never rode. So basically I was as new as you could get with zero fitness. I swam 6 times before my first sprint tri. On race day the swim was brutal. However, one year later I completed a full Ironman in Chattanooga September this year. I spent 8 months of dedicated training. Learning to swim 2.4 miles was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. I completed in 13:49 with 2 flat tires and 6 GI stops on the run.
      I went from complete newbie to Ironman Finisher in a year. I’m a nobody. I have no talent at it. I just worked my ass off and crossing the finish line was one of the best feelings in my life. Anyone can do this sport. Just takes commitment and a lot of time…

    Nick,
    This is absolutely incredible man. I’ve used the “embrace the suck” mentality ever since I enlisted. It’s carried me a long way throughout my career in the military.
    Within the last year, that mentality started slowly fading away. I started blaming others for my deficiencies, flaws, and lack of success. After watching you go through this journey, knowing EXACTLY what has been your drive and motivation, I can say wholeheartedly that I have never felt so alive. There is so much to life and staying “satisfied” isn’t enough for me. I want to push myself to limits I haven’t even dreamed of but it all starts with accepting the fact that everyday is going to suck. Thank you for bringing my mind and spirit back to where it needed to be. You’re a true inspiration, sir.

    Hey Nick, greetings from Germany. I found your videos a few months back while I was looking for Ironman Preps guides. I have been following them ever since. Watching this video was a bit diffrent though, my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer in the begining of March. Sadly the cancer was so aggressive that it spread to her heart and she passed away 3 weeks later. A month later I signed up for the Ironman. Hearing what you had to say about your mom and what everyone with cancer is going through really hit home for me. It was exactly what has been going theough my mind since April. Your story has inspired me even more than I was allready. Thanks for all your hard work, keep rocking it and making awsome content. "Lass es krachen ;-)"

    Good stuff brother!! I too lost my mother to ovarian cancer (albeit many years ago)! I'm 55, and doing my first Ironman in November, also PCB! Thanks a ton for putting this video together. You showing all of the prep definitly helps ease some anxiety! Cheers

    Thanks for uploading this! I fell into a little rut with my Ironman training with how busy life gets with work and kids etc.
    Similarly my wife’s uncle just passed away of cancer and I have 2 friends right now who are battling it.
    Thanks for the boost in motivation and congratulations! Hopping on the bike now 💪

    You are a beast, nick. Seeing you accomplish such amazing feats through such horrible hardships like losing your mother is very inspiring. I know the pain that cancer can cause a family and I know you’re in pain. Good on you for turning that pain into aggression and energy towards a goal.

      Hi guys :)
      I wanted to update you that I’m already into working on some new videos- here’s some topics to look forward to:
      -Cereal Culture(it’s like a sequel to pop culture)
      -Oak Island Money Pit (just a really interesting true story that takes place in Nova Scotia)
      -I mean I wrote so much about corn it’d be dumb not to do one on corn I guess, I just don’t understand the premise of it
      -Every Video Game Ever (informative skit thing)
      I’m really excited about these - they trail a bit more into the informative videos you guys seem to like, so I hope you’ll like em too.
      Also thank you for the support on the plushies and the video I just released- I know it’s not fair to slap with you guys with a video basically dedicated to merch, but it felt like the last time I released the plushies a lot of people weren’t aware, so I wanted
      To give you guys one more chance to try and get them. So thank you for sticking with me and more animated
      Videos come soon-
      I also have a bunch of footage of me animating a running loop of GingerPale using embroidery, but after seeing a bunch of comments of people being not so nice about the latest video being not animated- even though it was made by my friends over at NeverCake and THEY DID AMAZING :’) - I’m not sure it will fit on the channel, so if I decide to still finish it I’ll probably just put it up on GpApi. We’ll see tho- just wasn’t feelin the bullying today so I don’t want to disappoint again with another not fully animated video - idk we’ll see
      I will go draw now :>
      Thanks again

    So heart felt. I started tearing up as I lost my mom to cancer last year as well. Being a cancer survivor myself, I know the battle and journey how hard it may be. I embrace everyday as if it were my last and live for myself and my family to the best I can. I'm all with you brother. Let's keep it going forward for our moms. Thank you for sharing your journey in becoming an IronMan.
