Thank you so much and welcome 👋 Many happy returns!

Thanks my guy!! I really appreciate that!

Right? Whistler is definitely one of my top favourite places - So beautiful! Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. I agree, it was definitely a lot different than a road race. Would you ever do one?

@@cianematics Road race? Nope. 😄 Off-road? Sure. And I have before - I did the Golden (half) Ultra a few years ago. Came 3rd last but it was amazing fun and gorgeous area.

@@76kilosofshade81 ohh no way! Golden Ultra is so beautiful too. I was there a few years ago supporting friends who did that event. Even though it rained, they had a blast.. I was jealous I didn't join.

@@cianematics maybe next year! 😄 I didn't train seriously for it, so there was a lot of fast hiking. But I'd do it again, just for the experience.

Thanks bro!! Appreciate you 🙏 haha can't beat the eggs honey toast!

Aww thanks so much bb!! Thanks for your help with getting the shots 🙏❤️

I like the way you're thinking 😂

Thanks bro! I'm such a noob - they were so hard 😅

Thanks bb. Haha, type 2 fun for sure!!!

Thanks bro!! Just trying to keep it real 🙏

Hahaha give us time.. we got this 😅

Haha you're right, it is!! Thanks bro

Thanks so much Shane!! I actually had a TT bike before, but sold it for a road bike because I wanted something more multi purpose and less delicate/expensive haha. I like having the ability to go on gravel if needed.

Hahaha! Thankfully that hasn't happened.. yet. 😅 thanks so much, I'm looking forward to getting back on it. The time off was a tad bit too long for my liking. Are you building now for CIM?

@@cianematics Not quite in the official build for CIM yet. Just in maintenance mode right now. The build will kick off at the end of next month. Thanks for asking

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing you smash that 🙌

Thanks for watching my friend! It's gonna be a little different for sure haha 😅 Have you ever done an Xterra?

Not yet since I only did my first triathlon this year. But planning to do it next year here in Europe somewhere. Good luck with the preparation 💪🏻

@@NoNicheBrad thanks bro!! 🙏

Thanks so much my friend!! 🙏

Thanks so much!! Congrats on finishing your first tri - and being an IM event, that's really impressive!! How did you find the course overall? Will you do it again next year? Yeah I'm so glad I wore the shell on the bike, otherwise it would have been a suffer fest.

Thanks so much Michelle!! Appreciate the best wishes 🙏

Haha yeah our bikes were destroyed too. I mean, overall Ironman events are well organized from aid station setup, on course support, pre-race guide/information, volunteers etc. I agree with you that the shuttle logistics wasn't great with this course but considering the limitations of park accessibility, I suppose there's only so much they can do (we weren't aware of the valet service). My only real gripe with this course was the swimming entrance and start delay.

@@cianematics actually start delay is a norm these days due to self seed and 2-3 athletes every 3 seconds. In Oregon you walk to the swim when you wait and then your swim is 24 minutes due to the current much less that you spent waiting and walking to the start. Organizers could create a bike shuttle service, this will cut traffic in half!

Ahh that makes sense! I don't remember that much of a delay before. I guess the weather really made it frustrating.

Congrats on your race though!! Great job persevering through the cold weather! 🙌

I'm training for a fairly cold ironman (my first and most likely last full) so I found this race is very useful for mental preparation and arranging transitions. Who would think that you need extra dry clothes after? 😂😂 Usually I do hot 70.3 so this was new for me.

Thanks so much Elisabeth! I appreciate you supporting us both! 🙏

Oh noo!! That's exactly what happened to me in T2 while trying to change my socks. It's the worst, isn't it. Good on you for powering through with untied shoes - impressive. Thanks so much, I tried to work with what I could get haha. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks again 🙏

Thank you so much Lisa!! 🙏

Wow, congrats on completing your first 70.3! Huge accomplishment! We got so unlucky with the weather. Glad you enjoyed it regardless!! Sounds like this might not be your last? 😏

@@cianematics thinking of doing the Victoria Half in July

@@Munts Nice!! I've heard that's a great event actually. Is the course the same? Best of luck if you do it!

@@cianematics The bike course is 2 laps on many of the same roads. The swim and run are pretty much the same.

Thanks Thiego!! 🙌

Thanks Jack!! Appreciate the support 🙌

Right?! Something so refreshing being in fresh water. I also loath chlorine smell haha.

Thank you bb ❤️

Thanks so much Thiego!! hello to Brazil 👋🇧🇷Appreciate your support 🙏

Haha thanks, me too! It's a little soon after the marathon, but we'll give it a go 😅 Yess! Hopefully they can pull off the win tonight - Saturdays performance was sub par!

Haha! It's so interesting, isn't it! I love seeing it all written out - it helps to visualize it. Thanks so much!

Thank you so much!! 🙏🙏

I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thank you, I really appreciate it, my friend. 🙌

@@cianematics Looked forward to a new episode each week and the quality of each episode did not go unnoticed!

Haha! That means the world to me, thank you! There will be more to come! 👀

Thanks so much Shay!! Did you end up running it too?

@@cianematics half marathon this year! Aiming to do the full next year :)

@shaywhite, YES!! Do it buddy!! Hope the half went well for you this year.

Thanks so much, my friend! I'm delighted with the result despite not being a sub-3. Putting a climb at the finish line is savage haha. I really appreciate the support 🙏

Haha, you got spoiled 🤣 Thanks buddy!!! Appreciate all your support 🙏

Thanks my friend, appreciate the good luck! All the best with your half marathon. Those last 6 weeks are gonna fly 🙌

Thanks buddy!! Congrats on your PB - you got a savage time 👏👏 sub 3 for CIM for sure 😜

Thanks bb!! Counting down the days 😬🫣

Haha!! Thanks bb 🥰

Thanks, my friend!!

Haha it really was an emotional rollercoaster 😅🎢

Thank so much for the birthday wishes! That's awesome you're doing your first marathon - the first one is so exciting. Best of luck with your training and don't forget to take it all in at the end - the time goes by so fast! I'm using the Garmin Fenix 5X plus - It's definitely a few years old now - got it back in 2019. That said, when you spend so much on a watch, you'd think it would be the battery that goes first, rather than the software glitching.

Haha, thanks Jason! Let's hope it's my best year too. I will definitely fight for it, that's for sure!
