Awesome! Not triathlon related but I really enjoy the production value of your videos . Very entertaining! I start marathon training 6/21 for Chicago on 10/10. First marathon!

I ran my first marathon last Saturday! 5 hours 30 minutes. It was humid and people suffered the back half, and I’m just thrilled to have finished!! I would love to do a triathlon but the swimming scares me also.

Wow congrats to you! My goal for my first was to finish! I did just 4 minutes longer than your time. Great job!!! It’s such a great accomplishment and feeling. I bet you are proud!

@@ChrisSwanzy I am WOWED by your second and third marathon times! I think I could close 5…I stopped to talk to my cheerleaders and used the bathroom a couple times…I could cut down on both of those 🤪😆 I promised my family I wouldn’t do another…now I’ve said I won’t for awhile! I am training for a half and hope to work on speed. What did you do to get faster?

After my first marathon I took too much time off. I don’t think I ran for 4 months. Not sure why I thought that was a good idea. 😂 I just started running again and I guess with the experience from my first made it a bit easier to build on what I already started. The speed just came in time. It is a time suck for sure. My goal last year was to break 4 hours in Moscow but covid blew that up. No marathons last year. I was NOT going to do a virtual! So this year I said let’s just do a Ironman. Will see how it goes. Keep up the training. Long story short. Consistency is what will do it. Keep me posted!

@@ChrisSwanzy thanks and will do! Keep the content coming! I’m like you, working full-time and married with kids, but you need the time for you.

Enjoyed the video. Just ran a 25K. Getting ready for another half marathon in May. Excited about following your journey towards the iron man triathlon. Which competition did you enter? Did you already said and I just missed it?

Hello Maria. It’s still going. Very tough sport to train for as well as time constraints. Work has been super busy in last 5 months as well. Less than 2 months. I’m trying to get an update out soon. Where’s all the time! 😂
