Eminem – Lose Yourself, is the sound track throughout this video.
a good sound track to get u phsyced up for going fast on a bike or jogging, is.. ‘Prodigy – Firestarter’
I agree totally, though Voodoo People (pendulum remix is AWesomE!!!)
If you’ve taken any Biology courses on the human body, you’ll know that Protein isn’t a myth buddy.
this song sucks
i do olympic distance but am doin a bit longer tomorow i think 200m swim 25k bike 12.5 k run i just turned 14 but im doin ironman when im 15, not competition tho=D training
great video but just once i would like to see a ironman video without eminem in the background
Olympic distance is 1500m 26mi bike and 10k……so u will pretty much be doing an Olympic if at all.
i meant to say 2000mswim
lol.
vid would be sick with some Oh Sleeper or August Burns Red in the background
The Tarahumaras sometimes run more than 100 miles to chase a prey till it tires :O
I completely agree. It’s a little much after the 10th video!
Doubt they do it for fun though
fuck yeah, American Dream , by August burns red would own.
Still, there is the swimming and the cycling to add.
Sure 100 miles is a hell of a distance to run as is an extreme marathon. But these guys doing the ironman cycle father and the adds a marathon and a bit of a swim to it.
Difficult to write that down…
Such a cheesy commentator ha
why do you doubt that?
como se llama la musica?
It’s “Lose Yourself” by Eminem.
I have done a lot of endurance sports and triathlons, but the most triathletes I know (including myself) are not that ‘cool’. We are just a bunch of semi-autistic hardworking loners. Most of us had to less feeling for the ball to compete in popular sports. Let’s not pretend to be cool.
The most amazing people ever.
it’s 10 hours of racing in an IM, compared to 20 hours of racing in a 100m. Can’t compare the two.
Can anyone give me the movie? I didn’t manage to find any torrents… Please!
Cool’s outta fashion. Triathletes just get things done. Nobody in the sport really cares about cool anymore…with all the weird clothing and star trek looking bikes. Just finish that thing you’ve got on sunday and move on to the next…that’s how they live…Cool? Wasat?
True. Especially when we are wearing compression socks around the house for recovery and eating chocolate Gu gels for snacks.
Yeah, I’d have to say that I definitely can not do a super marathon. I’ve done several half irons…and training for the full iron isn’t so bad so far…but running 100 miles I’d say is much worse…even if I’m biking and swimming at race pace, I’d still worry about surviving a 100 mile run.
