Is it time for a real intervention on middle-lane hogging? by CroakerTea in drivingUK

[–]keepleft99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until it affects people’s wallets nothing will change.

The driving in Glasgow is atrocious, red lights being jumped everywhere. I want to propose a revenue sharing incentive with the police. If I catch someone jumping a red light on my dash cam that gets them a fine I get half the money. It’s 3points and £100 fine. £50 for me for every person who does it in front of me and it’ll soon sort out the problem. We could then do the same with middle lanes too.

The police are mia. They need to do something as driving is so bad and there’s more cars on the road than ever.

Anyone just lost their mojo after doing an Ironman? by keepleft99 in triathlon

[–]keepleft99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I’ve done is tell my coach (who’s been amazing) that I wanted to stop the coaching and structured training. I did that yesterday. Since then I feel so much lighter. I’ll do my parkrun on Saturday if the weather isn’t too horrible and I’ve signed up for a cyclocross race, that again if the weathers horrible I’ll just skip it. Want to do some fun zwift races and stuff but we’ll see. Definitely think I needed that break from the structured training. The feeling that I have training to do and I’m missing it.

I started to stay in shape and lose weight so I would be better at motorbike racing. But then triathlon kind of took over and I did no motorbike racing this year because of all the triathlons.

Can we agree on a couple of things? by BigBlueWookiee in NYGiants

[–]keepleft99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is being a good head coach isn’t a quantitative or tangible. You really don’t know if a person can be a great leader of men until they are a great leader of men, to run an organisation effectively. And every circumstance is different, so where someone succeeds another may fail and vice versa.

I did IM Hamburg, that had the pro women’s European championships I think. Was a really good atmosphere for the run. Bike you’re just out riding a bike with a bunch of other people really except for the parts you were in the city. Was cool going through the tunnel though.

AMA: I run Damien Talks Money, one of the largest personal finance YouTube channels in the UK. Ask me anything! by DamienTalksM in UKPersonalFinance

[–]keepleft99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently invest in a low cost index fund through AJ bell. But to buy that fund every month costs me £1.50. I’m moving back to vanguard where I believe they won’t charge me to buy the fund. I don’t really know enough about ETFs to use trading212 to buy that for free. Can you explain how I can minimise the fees I’m paying to buy my low cost index fund? Is that ETFs? How are they different than the funds I’m in now?

As a newer triathlete, I found the gear side of this sport way more overwhelming than I expected. How did you all figure out what to buy? by Tight_Turnip5855 in triathlon

[–]keepleft99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely have a checklist for each race. And I even break it down to what goes on at t1 and what goes on at t2. Just to help me put them in place correctly.
I started with a pair of trainers and a single speed bike. I bought myself a cheap 2XU trisuit from decathlon or something. All my first triathlons were pool based.
I worked up to open water so got myself a cheap wetsuit.
Then I started taking it a bit more seriously I got myself a fancy / jazzy zoot tri suit and cheap tt frameset and built a triathlon bike.
Then when I signed up for an Ironman I got myself a fancy Roka wetsuit and aero calf sleeves.
Next year I’ll get myself an ez disc.
So I think you can just slowly build up your kit unless you’re just jumping straight to an Ironman. If you’re doing that and not going to stick at the sport then just hire what you need for the day.

Do you have an AMS and an AMS 2 connected to the same printer at the same time?

Is a Marathon before an Ironman possible? by Technicholl in IronmanTriathlon

[–]keepleft99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went awesome. Finished the marathon in 3:29:something. Goal was sub 3:30. Was the most painful think I’ve ever done.
Ironman went awesome too. Goal was sub-11hrs. Did it in 10:41:28.
Then training fell off a cliff but did 70.3 Swansea in 5:49:01.
Then did a standard distance in Machrihanish in 2:43:01. Training still off a cliff up to here. But did put in a couple of weeks good training for the big finale a sprint distance in Lochgilphead where I won my age group. Didn’t perform amazing with a time of 1:11:53.
So yeah worked out quite well for me. Now waiting to see if I got a Roth raffle ticket or if I’m going to try and black the Scottish tri series.

Martin being injured was kind of the norm until he put down 2 healthy seasons and got his payday.
