  • What is it really like to complete the Celtman? Join Gymshark's Fergus Crawley as he tackles one of the world's most beautiful and difficult extreme triathlons.
    The Celtman! The UK's toughest triathlon and part of the XTRI World Tour, the Celtman triathlon pushes even the most seasoned athletes to their physical and mental limits. Comprised of a bitterly cold swim through 3.4km of jellyfish infested waters, a 202km cycle through the Scottish Highlands and concluding with an arduous 42km run over the Beinn Eighe mountain range; the Celtman is a triathlon that is not for the faint of heart.
    Follow hybrid athlete Fergus Crawley as we take you behind the scenes of the Celtman, experiencing the trials and tribulations of an extreme triathlon, and how much it means to complete one.

    Not a bad try. Good for you, sort of. My work mate did the race for the first time too. He works a proper job, full time. He also has never had a coach, has no support team and wasn't given an expensive bike to ride. He completed the harder high course and finished 39th to your 118th. He's also a true scotsman with a big red beard and drinks like a fish. Maybe Gymshark should think about sponsoring him. He's the Graham Obrea to your Chris Boardman.

    • @richardbritain7435
      @richardbritain7435 Před 2 lety +1

      @WDFT my friend is about the same age, and similar build to Fergus. He's never done a race like the celtman before, and as I said he has no coach and no support team. He has a full time job and bought his own average bike. He more or less did just 'rock up'. He didn't expect to thrash Fergus at all. We both followed Fergus and thought he was some sort of machine. Fergus did well but he hardly 'smashed it' did he. The lesson is, you don't need a huge support system to actually smash a race like this. Well done to Fergus and his team, but more well done to those who just did it.
