A Day In The Life Of Alex Yee 

How much effort does it really take to run jump swim and ride a bicycle when you don’t have to go to work or put food on the table? I guarantee you it’s a lot harder to become an Olympic athlete while you’re trying to raise a family. For all intense and purposes, he is essentially a racehorse, glorified and subsidized by the British people.

@@Starkillr1 if I paid all your bills and gave you a sack of cash you still wouldn't be able to do 10% of what these athletes do..always a bit of jealousy out there get over it

​@@Starkillr1 I'm pretty sure he pays his taxes... And reading your post I would guess he pays a lot more than you.

⁠@@Starkillr1you clown. Doing this year round pushing your body to the limit in all weathers is a lot more difficult than it looks. These guys shouldn’t have any distractions as they are the very best and inspire the next generation, leaving far more of an impact on the world than sanctimonious gits like you. Focus on improving yourself rather than trying to bring others down.

​@@Starkillr1how much effort 😂😂, guaranteed you are an over weight clip led like sack of potatoes on your settee you yogurt body reptile

Mo Farrah has run 26:46 for 10,000m 😂

@@bensabeast23 The comparison is done by age. 26.46 was the time Sir Mo Farrah has run at the age of 28. Alex Yee is 26 years old.

😂 don’t bother with nuance on the internet!

Hey man I always wondered if you have asthma is it difficult to do any cardio like running?

@@coolkid8608 hey man. I can only speak for myself in this case, but for example jogging is difficult. I can jog for about 3 minutes before having difficulty breathing. Things such as cycling and swimming dont trigger the same response; it's a weird condition to have

Awesome! We hope you enjoy watching our London race this weekend 🔥

All Tri athletes are grounded and normal

and delivered

@Alex Yee

By far

He floats over the ground. Such a joy to watch.

🔥🔥

Can't wait to see what he does in London this weekend 🔥

We can't wait to watch both of them race in London this weekend 🔥

Barry ?

“Once things unravel”

@@potatoginger7367 That's what I thought, but "once things unravel" isn't a bad thing and he then goes to say "everything goes wrong", right??

You are kind of right. Watching things unravel can be neutral but here he means that when one thing goes wrong, everything else follows. Like how if you pull a loose thread of a jumper the whole thing could unravel.

@@AbiSaysThings yeah that's what I thought. He is so mature for his age, I feel could listen to him like I would a sage :'). Thanks Abi!

Having thought about it for another two minutes, perhaps Alex didn't want to be videoed with any equipment he isn't being sponsored to use.

They get plenty of data at Loughbrough only as and when required. Plus these were taper sessions basically.

Many athletes don't use them for things other than key sessions. Certainly not swimming. Running also, steady runs just done on feel. Grown up as kids/teens doing it like that you don't need tech constantly. It's the hobby athletes who are the worst for them 😂

@@ln5747 true. They don't need it for swims as they'll use the clock for the main set if required or a lot of the time have a coach anyway.

😂...is it!!

Polestar I think

That finish in Boston wasn’t bad, even if it looked it. He was impersonating footballers and there wouldn’t have been any concern about it if Hayden Wilde hadn’t looked aggrieved at him doing it. Wilde would have been annoyed at coming second again and would also have been tired after a tough race. Yee’s personality is obvious from all his interviews.

Funny, but correct comment in this world we live in. Nothing lasts😢

Yes "we" subsidise sport in the UK but not much of it comes from the government, a lot of it is lottery funding and then people as successful as him do make modest prize money and get sponsorships. And if you're working at Starbucks it's maybe too late for you to pick up a new sport and go pro by that point.

He got a lot of sponsors
