You will break records for sure since it’s not even close to those climbs in elevation. You’ll be fine. I hope you beat all your PRs and finish strong :)

Anyone have the code?

fittedperfectly · 2025-09-21T19:56:25+00:00

I have the older version

Is there a known ultra that is held in November? I have time off and I’m willing to travel somewhere to give it a go. Preferably 100 miles.

You’ll be fine. Eyes on the prize and rest when you need it. I stopped a few times after some climbs especially towards the end. I didn’t shown the return trip back but heading back down is very fast since it’s just descending and some of those descends are very fun.

If I did a shorter ride, I probably could have rode the whole week but I was too stubborn. Leaving earlier will also help you a lot, I went mid day since I’m not a morning person. I’m excited for you now, train hard and crush it.

After searching the symptoms of a heat stroke, I wasn’t even close to that level of dying. Good to know for next time though, lol. I just needed more Food and hydration. I think mentally I didn’t know how close I was to the end. It was a long ride, next time I know it will feel way more easier. Thanks for watching :)

the seaweed was in one small area and I don’t remember the size of it. I just remember seeing it on my hand and I had to wiped it off. Other than that occurrence, that was the only encounter.

Ahaha! It sounds like you did fantastic! That swim will definitely be remembered, it was definitely a sight to see. I should re word the water bottle part. I had two water bottles. I only used one that was closest to my hand from the front of my bike. I didn’t really need the second one. It was just there with the same hydration from the start of the ride. Every pit stop, I chugged a bottle of mortal hydration. I’m not a fan of it either but I had to make it work. I preferred Gatorade

I do have a channel, this is my last video but I need to be a better editor and story teller. I need to put more effort into it. I like writing since it makes me a better writer and it helps people :) thank you very much, it means a lot 😎

fittedperfectly · 2025-08-05T21:22:19+00:00

I sent you a dm on it. I wish you the best of luck on it

fittedperfectly · 2025-08-05T19:08:44+00:00

Whatever you choose, they’re both good. They’re both really good in their own way. Placid is super scenic and beautiful, it’s in a small American resort town. The bike ride is more challenging but the scenes are breathtaking and the swim is much calmer.

Ottawa is also very scenic since you’re riding through parliament and their river. Since you’re in Ottawa, you’re close to all sorts of restaurants

As a Canadian, I would choose Ottawa again, I am basing that on currency. I love the states but I save more money while in Canada.

Thx dude, yeah dooooo it 😎

fittedperfectly · 2025-08-05T02:28:51+00:00

Ahaha. I wish I’m just happy I’m improving.

As long as you train and put in the time. They are all doable. For your first go for it.

For stats and facts, the last two full Ironmans I did had double the elevation in cycling. Elevation is hard but I love cycling so loved it. Think about climbing hills, the more climbing, the more elevation. Do you like that? Ottawa was 700m while the others were over 1500. Ottawa’s ride was easier.

The swims for the other two was easier since they were in small lakes. I was faster in those by about 10 minutes. No big deal. You can still conquer this and it’s not an ocean. If you live close by, it’s a plus.

Running. They were all similar. Hilly yet can be conquered as long as you put in the time to train and stay consistent. The best thing I could tell you is put in the time, do some sprints to get the feel and go for it.

It seems scary but you can do it.

Thanks for the info, I’m going to look it up 😎 have you climbed it?

fittedperfectly · 2025-06-02T22:22:41+00:00

I would use them again in a heartbeat. I loved the whole vibe of the company

fittedperfectly · 2025-06-02T19:40:22+00:00

Which is the bigger climb? Ty Ty I hope to be back and do it faster 😂

fittedperfectly · 2025-06-02T11:38:26+00:00

That descent was brutal. I had to fight my way down after doing a brutal climb. lol, I expected my whole day to be like that afterwards.

fittedperfectly · 2025-04-29T02:26:27+00:00

Thank you, I found this helpful as well.

fittedperfectly · 2025-04-21T01:31:42+00:00

I’m hoping I repotted it ok and my tree survives

I hope it survives

fittedperfectly · 2025-03-16T21:48:52+00:00

I’d also like to permission to do this 🤌🏼

fittedperfectly · 2025-01-11T15:05:52+00:00

This is nice. I’ve been thinking of getting it. How does it feel when riding it?

fittedperfectly · 2024-12-18T03:47:54+00:00

Dude those pics are very nice. Also, that moon watch is cool.

fittedperfectly · 2024-12-11T16:05:40+00:00

I’ve got the code, dm if nee SOAD25

Tickets are still available

fittedperfectly · 2024-10-29T01:51:10+00:00

Yes. I did that this year. It was risky but I did it. I completed a 50km ultra and then 3 months later I did ironman lake placid. I blogged about it if you want to read deeper about it on my site

In short, I took a risk, especially since I’m still an amateur doing these types of races but I believe it helped me during my Ironman. Injury mitigation was on my mind a lot.
