One of few experience videos that credits partners and support crew for their sacrifice, respect! Great overview.

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Haha thanks! Without the support team we are nothing 💪

Hi, Patrick: Now that I've discovered your channel I'm going through your videos in chronological order. Just watched this. Very inspirational and self-honest. I hope you and Gabriella (sp.) are very happy!

Fantastic job Patrick! Working on my first 70.3 and yours are the best video I have found so far! Also, what a time for your first 70.3! Congrats!

[@bariskaanbek]

What a kind, candid and emotionally intelligent person you are! I’m so happy for this journey you’ve been in. Your content will be giving me a lot of guidance, strength and companionship in my training for my first Ironman in 2023.

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Hey thanks Baris!

[@Sanko1960]

I love the way you talk so well about all the details of your 70.3 experience. I am preparing for my first 70.3, and your video is motivational and encouraging. I also am very happy for you and Sabrina. Thank you!

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

💪💪💪💪💪thank you

[@pawelnadstoga376]

Awesome journey, bro! I'm exactly 4 weeks away of doing my first tri, also 70.3, in Busselton, Western Australia. I did a race sim on the actual course yesterday and it went better than expected. My splits were very similar to yours. Hoping to go sub 5h. Your takeways will definitely help. Also, that thing you did with the ring. That's something I'd do too if I had someone special in my life. Anyway, good stuff. Love your work. All the best!

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Thank you Pearl! How did the race go? 🙏🙏

[@TheNicolls]

Your videos are honestly so helpful. I'm considering training for a IM 70.3 and this was so helpful!

[@sinaerturk4380]

Awesome video! Can you make a video about how you trained for your first olympic distance triathlon please? It would be great guide for people like me who wants to get into triathlon.

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Hey Sina! Will make it in the future for sure, my first Olympic was non wetsuit legal by the way so very tough! It was fun, but I didn’t do as well as in this 70.3

[@annapolis97]

[@anthonydewaele9968]

Hi Patrick! Thanks for this very interesting video and congrats for your great time on the IM! What was your experience in enduro sports before doing the IM? My friends and I will do the IM 70.3 Cervia this year so, your video was really helpfull! Keep on and good luck for your next full IM! Anthony.

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Cervia is cool! I had zero experience in endurance sports, i was a recreational runner (7km) and a cycling commuter / alleycat racer but nothing more

[@mattwongtri]

Congrats on proposal!

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Thank you!! We’re stoked

[@pandreoni85]

[@enotracoon9244]

Great story! Wish you very best ! Are you aiming only for full Ironman in the future or also for 70.3 ?

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Hey Enot! 100% I would like to go sub5 on the 70.3 distance in the near future, so I will be racing the distance for sure

[@SebastianTrii]

What were your spilts.... ? Was waiting till the end and no splits lol

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

34 min swim 2:39 bike 1:39 run

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Man I just checked there’s detailed data screens and splits in the video lol like run is at 22:01 with every km time and speed

[@SebastianTrii]

@@PatrickDelorenzi I was listening while running haha.. thnx

[@WellnessWithBrina]

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

“Get up! There’s people watching” was the real first reaction haha

[@HarishChouhan]

Have you ever been to Danang in Vietnam?

[@PatrickDelorenzi]

Hey! Not yet no! Do you recommend it? A friend form the Discord Group just did da nang 70.3 and it seemed rad

[@HarishChouhan]

@@PatrickDelorenzi Absolutely. I had some friends who did it. Due to road conditions it was a bit messy but I'm hoping next year it will be back to the earlier level. Also, you might like this city. Some nice climbs and roads to ride. If you ever come here let me know.
