9:57 im the kid near dan!!!!
I was laughing my head off when i saw myself😂😂😂😂
Haha brilliant! Thanks for the support :)
@@TriathlonDan my dad and his friend took a picture with you in wales 2022 near a restaurant if you remember
Came here for the straighteners update and didnt get it 😢😂 Great racing again dude. As always great content. 👌
hahaha I think I need to start a GoFundMe! Looking at Liz's hair... there hasn't been a solution yet ;) cheers Stu!
Liz is awesome!
She’s great 😬
20-24 age bracket, get the boat. I near choked when ya said that 🤣🤣 That is a cracking performance, well done. Absolute sickener rolling over the 4.30 mark though 🙈 Nice coverage again Liz 👌
Hahaha well this is offensive 🤣 thanks very much :)
@@TriathlonDan We can all dream dude 🤣 I'm a few AGs up the way and get results like I'm further up again 🙈😁 Nice work and great to see the training paying it's dues. 💪
Great performance Dan and fantastic onboard footage from Liz. Really enjoyed the mid race chats 😂! Bravo
Cheers dude! Yeah it adds a nice perspective doesn’t it, just couldn’t have done it on the last lap 🤣. Roth gave me camera permission but I couldn’t bring myself to do it 😬
You’re on a roll Daniel. Brilliant. Working out the transitions would keep me up at night if I ever tried a triathlon. Well done to Liz for getting to each place to film too.
Cheers, back to the hard work now though eh 😬. Yes she did a great job, couldn’t do it without her 👍
Good work mate. I swear I heard a turbo boost fart on 8:20 😂
Haha yeah maybe 🤣🤣
Nice one!
I was there, doing my first ever 70.3. You'd probably finished this video and eaten your food before I got near the finish line!!
I absolutely loved it. Competed with a friend and we started and finished together.
Definitely going back next year!
That's awesome! Thanks very much :) I was probably still by the burger van haha!
Awesome work mate and well done to number one support crew Liz for getting some great footage 👏🏻
Cheers Chris! Thanks for the message too :) Liz smashed it!
Well in again Dan! Another really solid day out….roll on to the main event 🇮🇪
Thanks mate! All roads lead to Cork 🤣
congrats! u should come to italy. We call it ironman granfondo
Hahaha thanks!
Well done Dan
I don't know how you managed to swim, I was at Holkham 4 weeks before you and there were hundreds of Geese with goslings around and the lake looked to have loads of weeds
Thanks Rog! Haha they must have chased the geese off, and there was a channel cut out from the weeds I think. There was some in the water but it was far from the worst swim I’ve been in!
Well done matey that is awesome. I said hi to your better half on Saturday when I tacked my bike, she looked tired then lol.
I just don't know how people do the speeds you do. I did a PB yesterday at 7 23, that run jeez, had my plan until the last lap and then went to plan B
Thanks Gareth! Great performance, well done! That last lap bites doesn't it :D
@@TriathlonDan doesn't it just, good thing was I was on 12 min miles and thought I'd just keep running, then plan b was run 60 secs walk 60.
Another top result mate! Hard work is really paying off - especially for such a young lad 😉🤣 chapeau
Hahaha thanks, bright future ahead ;)
Great footage!
Thanks :) Liz did an awesome job!
Phenomenal effort 2 weeks after Roth
Thanks Dean!
awesome result mate! Keep rocking!!
Thanks Mo! Winter training pays off 😬
Well done !!
Thanks!
Well done mate, awesome race👏🙌
Thanks Louis, you too! I’ll come with you on the run next time 👀
Awesome!
Thanks!
Well done Dan!!! Mega
Thanks very much :)
Those bloody Velo Clinic athletes @8.45 🤣🤣🤣
They’re everywhere, they’ll take anyone 🤣🤣
Great performance Dan !! Just need to turn my jog into a run and I be hot on ya heals 😅
Cheers buddy! Haha it'll come back!
Sparkling water?! 🤣🤣 sponsorships gone to his head. Ittl be champagne next….🙊🙊🤣 kidding of course ace video as always :)
Hahaha champagne next time 🤣🤣 cheers!
4hr30 wow 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Il do my best for 6hr30 on my 70.3 sat week.
Thanks! Give it all you’ve got 👊
Well done Dan, really impressive especially on the back of Roth just a short time ago. Did you not have any fatigue carried from this?
Thanks Nick! I guess the answer is I don’t really know. I had an easier ride than normal just because of how it played out, so maybe that helped, I was expecting to crumble on the run but didn’t 🤷♂️ sport makes no sense sometimes
@@TriathlonDan you're obviously doing something right, so best not to overthink it! Well done again!
Well done Dan, great time. I loved the new end to the bike course with less elevation. Mark was stood near Liz for ages at the bike in (blue cap), but didn't go & say hello 🙈🤣. Great footage Liz! 👍
Thanks Debs! Haha next time!
Great video and performance! I did keep my eyes open but you were well ahead of me, the run course was almost empty on my last lap. Epic day out though, I thought the run course was a beast, what was your take on it?
Thanks Mark! That last lap certainly bites, I focused on recovering on the downhill gravel section, but it’s always going to hurt. I guess I’m ‘blessed’ with hilly terrain at home so it never feels intimidating, still difficult though
Good effort there Dan. Did you take your helmet off before realising you had racked in the wrong spot? I'd be worried about being penalised for being in control of my bike with helmet off/unclipped in T2, especially at a national champs. Not a problem for me as I've tried to run out of T2 with my helmet still on many years ago!
Cheers dude! Hadn’t taken my lid off thankfully
Great result. What shoes do you wear on race day.
Cheers! Vaporflys at the minute, think I prefer alphafly’s but I’m not buying any more just yet 🤣
Well done. What HR do you use? Did not see a strap when you were doing your Elvis impersonation.
Thanks! I don't use HR on the bike, but do sometimes use it on the run and I do like to look back at it, so I just use the wrist HR on my watch (Garmin Epix2) and use a bike computer for the bike, but upload the file from my watch. Straps annoy me :D
Get a pyramid design x1 chainring....Well done
That’s what’s on it 😬 it’s the first time it’s happened to be fair, might shorten the chain a link
@TriathlonDan wow, never had a chain drop on mine. Good plan lose a link.
Awesome result and great video, as always! Just be careful with having your supporters ride next to you whilst you race - that could easily turn into a DQ for coaching. If supporters are talking to you, both feet need to be on the ground
Cheers! Anything I do on video at an event I’ve already got permission to do, can’t risk losing my 20-24 titles 😬👍
@@TriathlonDan Good 👍🏻 so long as your fans don’t copy their favourite young (20-24AG) influencer 🤞🏼
It was my first 70.3 the drafting was a joke 😂 how did you get to start so early? I put 30mins on entry so I was in the 3rd wave and it was so annoying trying to get past people on the swim 😅
Haha it's not always like that don't worry! I was in the first wave, I've been top 50 in the last two Outlaw Half's I've done so think that's a factor. Pot luck with the swim isn't it
did they offer the tape to everyone? :D :D :D
Only winners 🤣🤣🤣🤷♂️
@@TriathlonDan hahaha ypunare the winner in our hearts 💕
As a non triathlete, what are the drafting rules in a triathlon?
12 meters or more between riders, if you get within that you have 30 seconds to pass. There's still a benefit at 12 meters, but even more at the 4/5 meters some people were riding at :D
@@TriathlonDan yes I can see how that would be annoying if you are sticking to the rules and others aren’t
@@TriathlonDanthat's 12m front wheel to front wheel, correct? So the gap is more like 10m, I get about a 20w saving off that distance, it's pretty significant
@@Richiemousethat’s just for long distance. Short distance doesn’t have drafting rules e.g. Olympic distance as the races are too fast and short
@@jimjamthebananaman1 sprint and olympic distance triathlons do have drafting rules for draft illegal races (most in the UK are draft illegal).
I’ll be honest, Outlaw’s draft busting is a joke. The motos are more bothered about crossing the line than the 20-person pelotons swerving into you!
Even if the Motos are just a visual deterrent, they’d help!
