My First Sub-10 Ironman 

Hey Guys just wanted to say a huge thanks for all the support. Especially to all the people up at Port Mac. Sub 9 is still the long term goal and I think if I stick with this approach for a few more years and keep enjoying the process it’s definitely possible! Uploads have been far less frequent lately but I’m currently working on a bunch of video ideas and I’m really motivated to make some good content over the next couple months. I’m also doing Ironman WA at the end of the year and hoping I can go fast. Not sure if I’ll be able to go sub 9 by then but either way I’m going to give it my best and most importantly enjoy it! Thanks to the help of sponsors like BetterHelp I’m going to be able to invest way more into the process and travel to faster courses. Thanks for their support and exclusive discount; BetterHelp.com/lachlan

Thank you for letting us be a small part of your journey, can’t wait for the next one!

Unreal mate. To run a 3.20 marathon at the end there is awesome. Well done!

Weapon mate!! Loved spending the couple days with you!!

I've learnt to keep my Spotify open when watching your vids, you've always got some absolute bangers that I had forgotten about and need to add to my running playlist! 🤣

Bloody great job!

So glad to see you enjoying yourself on race day, that pre-race was night and day different to last time. That’s a phenomenal day out mate!

Congrats man! Great result 💪

Strong, very improved mindset - great work!

Good on you mate! Super motivating to see you having fun with it, that’s what it’s all about. Keep up the good work man

glad to see you enjoying it. That's what matter most!

Great performance Lachlan!

Really enjoyed watching - great video it's really motivating

Well done Lachlan! I love your new approach. 😊

Stellar race! Glad to see you back. Everyone should look up Brody. I followed his whole build up to this race and it is awesome

insane effort. Kudos

Good job 👏

I really like the humor and the fact that you're not taking yourself THAT seriously (unlike many "elite AGers"). Keep it up! Massive thanks for the video, I had a blast, and congrats on the very respectable result.

One of the most entertaining RU-vidrs, with a great editing styles. I can’t stick around for many RU-vid videos these days with a TikTok attention span but I’ll never skip one of these vids. Love

Well done mate - I was happy to see you out there last week and that the sport plus the videos didn’t burn you out. On to Busso! I’ll also be heading over

Great vid mate

Great video and watch, thanks for taking the time to make it. oh and congrats on a great result 💪 Loved the ending also

Well done

Great video

Most Awesome Lachlan !! 🎉🎉🎉

Great work Lachie Pleasure to share the course with you on route to our first Ironman’s

Unreal mate! How’s the casual talking while holding that pace on the run! Your a weapon mate

Love the nerd belt !

Absolute king mate - this is so insane and has got me thinking about adding Port Mac to the calendar 😬

Onya Lach kudos

Love it mate! Great new perspective on racing! Hopefully see ya in a race sometime soon!

Congrats. Great to see a plan come to fruition. You also got Pete Vaughan near the end - his #124th Ironman.

Congrats dude! Sub 9 is in sight for sure

Absolute mad lad, this is just insane. One day I'll have to try this (currently too obsessed with regular cycling haha).

Hey Lachlan, awesome to see you finally see some great results from the hard work you've been putting in. Keep it up, sub-9 is right around the corner!

Fantastic video Lachlan. Your positivity is inspirational! Great job on the race!

Solid !!!

awesome videooooo

Late commenting, but this so impressive! It's great that all of your hard work payed off. Sub 9 is definitely within-reach for you.

Well done Lachy on breaking the race down and burning your matches where they count the most, in the last 10km of the run. You have captured the essense of success for any athlete. When all is said and done, if you are not having fun, what's the point? Enjoy your success and build off this experience.

lets go mate!!

Chris road to Kona update required! Far out, good work Lachy ! Chalk and cheese from 12 months ago. How’d you go with blood sugar monitoring race and training?

Great pacing! If you make it sub 9 at Ironman WA it would be insane improvement, so maybe next year!

Top effort mate. great comeback from the disappointment of last year

Congratulations on a great race! Great to see you having such a fun day as well…. The mental side of things is always ….a thing 😂

Well done and impressive how “easy” you made it look this sub-10 😅

Sub 10 at port is very impressive. I reckon it’s 30 mins harder course than cairns and Busso

Awesome video man gotta admit I’ve become a fan, looking forward to seeing that sub 9 and also to share the same joy and emotion for the sport, much love and support from Costa Rica, pura vida!!! 🫶🏼🇨🇷

You’ll enjoy it more with a coach :)

Song list?

👏

Would I be right in saying that to do a full Ironman, you need be be at the level of ""Athlete"" fitness wise?? I've a full coming up next year, and that's the level of fitness I'm telling myself I have to be at- an "Athlete".

Only 47mins to go to get to your original goal.

epic

Double Ironman when?

I vote we crowd fund to fly you to the fastest course we can find. If I was rich I’d pay the bill in exchange for a video

Congratulations on your first sub 10 hour. If Baggsy was still the race director he’d be sending you a letter to explain why you shouldn’t be DQ.

Well done. I’ve done 4 sub 10 IM’s, PB of 9:20 and at 55 went 9:50 at IM Arizona last year. I weigh 70 kilo’s and eat 120g of carbohydrates per hour in the bike. You need to double your carb intake.

Sad to see you taking sponsorships from BetterHelp and I hope you are aware what you are advertising. Absolutely amazing race and a great video! I hope to see more.

Huge. Sub 9 next, right? 😅

Well done
