At the beginning of April this year, my wife and I went to Finland to run the Arctic Marathon in Rovaniemi, the home of Santa Claus. In -9C and crisp snow, I won the only race I have ever won in my life. A great experience to run in the Arctic. We also came to cheer on all the DECA heroes a couple of times which was truly inspiring. Well done again to Triple Brutal James!!

[@TriathlonDan]

Blimey that sounds awesome, especially to win! James says thanks for the Deca support :)

Well done Dan. I ran the Derby 10 yesterday. My achievement for 2022 is coming back from a DVT / multiple blood clots in March to completing the London Marathon in October. It’s been a challenging and frustrating 2022 running year

[@TriathlonDan]

Thanks :) well done Mark! Sounds like you've overcome a lot, great determination. See you at the 10 next year :D

[@markhirdygirdy_runs]

@@TriathlonDan cheers Dan. Definitely great event

[@thedoginside]

Good effort and definitely looking trimmer. Negative splits, like garlic bread it's the future 💪🏽

[@TriathlonDan]

Thanks - yes it's mentally tough to pick up the pace when you're already going hard, but it's definitely faster than blowing up :D

[@manchesterkevruns]

Great run Dan... managed to crack my 10 mile pb at Derwentwater at the beginning of November beating my previous best time from over 3 years ago

[@TriathlonDan]

Corrrr wicked to smash a 3 year old PB! Thanks :)

[@willmunday8843]

Well done. Great run! Don’t you have to swim to class yourself as “mainly a triathlete normally”

[@TriathlonDan]

I’m a swimmer on an end of season break 🤣

[@Jo-yu7ud]

Well done. I'm super proud I did a half Ironman earlier this year. Signed up for outlaw full next year 😱

[@TriathlonDan]

Thanks :) nice one, see you there! I'm only doing a relay though :D

[@jasonmccartney4167]

Moving! Good stuff 👊

[@TriathlonDan]

Cheers buddy! You'll smoke me when you're properly back in action :)

[@Haylou]

Well done Daniel!

[@TriathlonDan]

Thanks Haylou :)

[@gabedellar588]

Very nice pacing Daniel

[@TriathlonDan]

Ta dude, just need to do that off the bike now :D

[@jtrainize]

Great to meet you out there on course bud and I finally have some idea of what I look like when I run. 😛

[@TriathlonDan]

And you buddy! Great running. Knew you would have done me on chip time 🤣. LMK about the pod 👍

[@SwimBikeRunStu]

I got bought a taster session at the velodrome by my other half. I lost the voucher and found it a year after it had ran out. One day il give it a go. Top running BTW.

[@TriathlonDan]

Haha I should check the date on mine! Same, bunch track racing just doesn't appeal to me at all though tbh. Stuff like IP / TP / Hour effort does though. Another bike needed :D

[@101ballard]

Great run Dan. I ran it 2 minutes quicker than I did last year. I was blowing out my arse going up the a6 at about 4 miles but then managed to finish strong coming back down the river. Great course it wasn’t as muddy last year.

[@TriathlonDan]

Nice one Ryan, 2 minutes is a good chunk! Hope it's drier next year then :D

[@michaelbooth2890]

I did the race and loved every mile of it. I race sparingly but its on the calender for next year.

[@TriathlonDan]

Brilliant :) see you next year!

[@ChrisColwillYT]

Awesome effort Dan - well done!

[@TriathlonDan]

Thanks buddy!

[@Haylou]

Good job Daniel, congratulations!

[@TriathlonDan]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@irondistance4313]

It can only go so wrong can’t it? That sounds like my new motto. My recent event was an Ironman bike simulation. I cut it short at 82 miles, do to some strong crosswinds and just not feeling it. I did average over 17 MPH even with 3 stops to pee

[@TriathlonDan]

Cheers! Still a great training session it sounds like though 👍 stick at it

[@irondistance4313]

@@TriathlonDan it was and I learned a lot about my fit and spending 4 hour in aero on a 4.7 hour ride. So yes Gainz where made

[@russellcarter6699]

Good run, but what is on the FTP playlist 🤔

[@TriathlonDan]

Haha all sorts! Rap, hip-hop, garage, it's a bit of a mashup :D

[@leewalters2794]

"1:10 is a stretch target" I told you weeks back you'd smash 1:10. Well done mate. Running doesn't suck"

[@TriathlonDan]

Cheers, I really feel like my running has come on a lot in the last couple of weeks. This was much faster than I expected, ran my fastest 5k, 5 miles & 10k or the year by a good wedge. Plenty more running to be done :D

[@billyguerin3660]

I ran a 4 mile road race this year in 35 mins I was proud of myself (btw are you doing Ironman cork 2023?)

[@TriathlonDan]

Nice one Billy! I don't think so, I haven't entered and I've got a couple of events either side that I think wouldn't be helpful if I was to do it. Have a great race if you do it :)

[@runmyworld]

Well done 🎉 what a pace. Do you have any more ‘just running’ races planned in the near future or focussing on triathlon ?

[@TriathlonDan]

Thanks very much :). I’m doing ‘the Rauceby Ripper’ which is an 8.5-9 mile cross country in February and I’m debating a half marathon in March / April time, so I’ll let you know 😬👍

[@georgekirkman8325]

Well done mate cracking effort considering you thought 1:10 was going to be a push! I did the oulton park marathon but fell apart due to an injury ! Still won though and ran a 2:47 so not too terrible !

[@TriathlonDan]

Cheers dude! Just shows you don’t know what you’ve got until race day doesn’t it. Plenty of running ahead for me this winter that’s for sure. Nice one mate well done, marathon distance is a tough game hey

[@paultaylor6850]

My best and most memorable race was finishing my first marathon two weeks after having covid, yes it was as bad as it sounds.

[@TriathlonDan]

Blimey that sounds tough! I think I was walking a mile round the block two weeks on :D

[@NewmskiRunnerCarerDJProducer]

Are you taking part in this years Derby 10 on Sunday 19th (this Sunday)?

[@TriathlonDan]

Unfortunately not :( have a great race if you are though 👍👍

[@NewmskiRunnerCarerDJProducer]

@@TriathlonDan Cheers. Yes, I'm taking part again, 3rd one, but 8th and final run of 2023. Back on training during December, ready for next years batch.
