  • It is finally here! The 3rd episode of our IRONMAN journey. Our coach told us that we absolutely had to do a training camp before our full IRONMAN to be fully prepared. And that's exactly what we did. We went to Club La Santa in Lanzarote for 5 days aka the triathlon mecca for everybody who loves to suffer in style. This video contains advertisements for the brands "Castelli" and "6D Sports Nutrition".

    Arno and Rob, as you stand on the precipice of your first Iron Man, remember that greatness lies not in the absence of struggles, but in the resilience to rise above them. The countless hours of training, the sweat, the tears, and the moments of doubt have shaped you into warriors of unwavering determination. Now is the time to unleash the fire within and conquer the challenges that lie ahead.
    In this grueling test of body and spirit, know that you are not alone. The bond between brothers is a force that knows no limits. When fatigue threatens to engulf your weary souls, draw strength from each other's unwavering support and unwavering presence. Your journey is not just a testament to your individual strength but a testament to the power of brotherhood.
    The Iron Man is not a race against others; it is a battle against self-doubt and the will to push beyond your perceived limitations. Embrace the pain, for it is a gateway to transformation. Embrace the obstacles, for they are stepping stones to greatness. Remember, the most extraordinary victories are born from the crucible of adversity.
    As you dive into the depths of your iron will and summon the resilience that resides within, know that your names shall be etched in the annals of triumph. Arno and Rob, you are poised to become legends of perseverance and inspiration. Embrace this moment, embrace the challenge, and let the echoes of your efforts reverberate through the hearts of all who witness your unfaltering spirit.
    Go forth, brothers, and let the Iron Man bear witness to the indomitable force that resides within you. May the strength of your bodies, the fire in your hearts, and the unwavering bond between you carry you to heights you never thought possible. This is your time to shine, Arno and Rob, and may your legacy inspire others to unleash their own greatness.

    Hi fellow triathlon men, athletes and followers of this channel
    I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. On the 10th day of January we embark on a journey, a operation more severe than D-Day, battle of Morannon, Battle of stalingrad, pvp in the wildernis etc. Many people have tried and quit their hopes on finishing an Ironman... BUT, NOT US. WE ARE STRONG and we will make it past the last weeks of training. It wont be easy, it will be long and hard. But I believe in you guys, I believe that you wont give in to temptation to give up in these final training sessions. The finish line is there, vol-au-vent ll be there as well as the pride of your whole community
    They didn't believe in you, but me, this family and God did. "You either win with us or watch us win". "Not all dreamers are winners, but all winners are dreamers. Your dream is the key to your future."

    I ll send you guys my 99 prayer to succesfully finish this tough Quest. Soon the time of the empire of disbelievers ll be over. “Success isn't always about 'Greatness', it's about consistency. Consistent, hard work gains success. Greatness will come and the Ironmen ll be eaten like you do with a broodje american” Remember 92 is half of 99, your work is not done yet... So be brave my soldiers, rise your shields, get in the water, put on your shoes, jump on that fucking bike, pretend there is no pain, no wind and don't let your lazy brain win. Remember friends, there’s always a choice! We shall never surrender! With the guidance of Frederik and Luc you already did some incredible things. Let's make them proud and show them that you, the pupils ll become the new masters in Ironman-town. You and I, gentlemen (training myself) are sharing the labour, the mindset and the danger, therefore the rewards will be all for us all!!! Let's fuck this Ironman!!!!!
    (Please share the new song you receive by finishing this Quest)
    P.S. Since I ve lately been followed by a butt-hole-police-officer I could use this borat outfit to mislead them and protect my own booty.
    Sending you positive Energy,
    Kind Regards,

Watching you guys go through it smiling and cheering each other on without a trace of ego or bitterness truly inspires me. I can’t wait to see what you guys accomplish during the iron man. Lastly, I gotta add on a taccy inspirational quote: pain is weakness leaving the body brothers.

Be proud wat jullie tot nu toe al hebben bereikt, maar we weten allemaal dat dit voor jullie gasten niet het einddoel is. Binnen paar weken staat het moment daar, maanden getraind, op jullie voeding gelet, maar vooral gedaan wat jullie graag doen.

    All the love naar jullie man, het gevoel wat dit te weeg brengt, de motivatie die het bij mij als kijker oproept. Het is onbeschrijfelijk, als iemand die jullie persoonlijk niet kent maar wel met al de liefde en passie in zichzelf hoopt dat deze guys het gaan halen. Jullie halen iets in andere en jezelf naar boven wat niet met woorden te beschrijven is. Ik hoop dat jullie dit lezen en weten dat er mensen zijn die jullie niet kennen maar het allerbeste met jullie voorhebben. Jullie alle 3 zijn legendes want Milan mag absoluut niet vergeten worden, de mentale support die hij jullie geeft is ongekend. Love you guys. Oh en die quote hebben jullie niet nodig, de mindset die jullie laten zien is met geen quote te versterken 😌

    Arno and Average Rob, you both have hearts of gold. You're dedicated and determined, and your stories should be told. Keep pushing through the tough times, and never lose your drive. And when you need a break, enjoy a veggie vol-au-vent, and let your spirit come alive. You're both amazing, you're both strong, and you can achieve anything you want- just keep believing all along. 💪🍅👊

    20 jaar geleden heb ik ook aan triathlon gedaan, kwartjes weliswaar. Gecombineerd met 6/7 werken, niet gemakkelijk. Ik had ooit de intentie om een 1/2 te doen, maar ik kon het niet opbrengen. Na het zien van jullie pracht prestatie, heb ik niet minder dan 300% respect voor jullie. Chapeau kerels. Ik zou het niet kunnen. Ook al zou ik begeleid worden zoals ze bij jullie hebben gedaan. Respect.

Unfurtunately I had a bad accident last year and I am still suffering from injuries but seeing you never giving up and getting up every day with a smile in order to reach the target impresses me. I wish you all the best for your mission and always keep in mind - the will must be stronger than the skill and giving up is never an option. May the force be with you - along the whole 226 km you have to go :)
