Zero To Ironman: EP 24 - 8 WEEKS OUT - Weekly Training Vlog including a Half Marathon

Week 23 of my 7 month journey as I train from zero prior experience to complete an Ironman in order to raise awareness for T2KO and support those facing this tough battle.
A week full of training, 8 weeks out from Ironman Port Macquarie! We also ran with T2KO athlete, Brandon, for apart of my longer run which was just over half a marathon this week!

8 weeks 😱😱 that’s coming up quick! Take care of yourself this last little stretch, don’t want any injuries now. Awesome seeing the immense progress you’ve achieved, there no way you won’t crush this now!

[@brodysearle]

Thanks mate!!

[@stormdrury]

Cool stuff man! I’ve been using your training vids as motivation. I have been training for roughly the same amount of time for my first Ironman 70.3 up in Port. Great seeing your progress! You have leaned out a tonne since the beginning. See you up there 💪🏼

[@brodysearle]

Love it mate! That’s great volume for a 70.3, you’ll smash it!

[@Adam-wi7dd]

Great ep mate. Interested to hear your thoughts on the new shoes! I went to the Running Company for the first time this week and had an awesome experience, picked up a couple of pairs of pumas. Having a running track to test them out before you buy makes a massive difference

[@brodysearle]

Yeah the lads there are great! My brother has been there for a couple years I think now! I’ll see how I go over the coming weeks with them 😁

[@MajaNoer]

Thanks for putting out videos each week! It's been fun and interesting to follow your training. You effort isn't going unnoticed especially now that the training volume is so high! I think most training blocks have some sort of disruption whether it's sickness, injury or something else. A week or two off of swimming won't negate 22 weeks of steady effort and you still have time to make up for it :)

[@brodysearle]

Thanks Maja!! 😁😁

[@nickcugnetto3777]

8 weeks to go - your absolutely smashing it out bro. Keep it up !!

[@brodysearle]

All love brother ❤️

Another great and genuine episode brother! Wish I was located in your area. Then I would have been your filming buddy 👊🏼 let’s go!

[@brodysearle]

Thanks mate! Hope you’re still going well!

[@nickcugnetto3777]

8 weeks !! not long to go now mate - smashing it out

[@brodysearle]

Thanks bro ❤️

[@paulmollusc1990]

How are you finding the general fatigue between sessions? I'm liking the positivity in these videos, even when you talk about niggling injuries you're just matter of fact about it

[@brodysearle]

Thanks mate! Small injuries are pretty much always going to happen when you’re loading so quick, so it’s just easier to accept it! Honestly it’s probably more the feeling of being tired during the late afternoon that hits more than the fatigue for me at the moment!

[@benotoole1990]

Keep going bro!

[@brodysearle]

Thanks brother 🤙

[@clementleroy5393]

Hey mate! You're doing amazing keep going! I'm excited knowing your ironman is coming. I used to have pain on lateral foot when i was running, it was quite annoying. Was weird as it would only happen on easy runs. I kinda fixed it by tightening less the laces. Made a slight difference. Ultimatly i changed brand. Might help you idk. Anyway happy you got some non-carbon-plate-shoes! Pain might come from that too, carbon plate take the job off from some muscles (does my english make sense?) those muscles have suffered of a lack of training. I dont know what im talking about, you know the human body better than me, must make more sense to you. Loved the chaotic week video! See ya next week🤙

[@brodysearle]

Thanks man!!! I think it’s also because I’ve pretty much never ran in non carbon apart from Clifton 9s early days but then hoped out of them haha Thanks bro!!! Excited :)

[@InvincibleGuineaPig]

8 weeks lets go!!!！🔥

[@brodysearle]

So soon haha :)

[@ampgb223]

We are 3 episodes in watching the Octopus, it's so fucked up, some nasty MF out there. Keep on keeping on.

[@brodysearle]

It’s pretty insane!

[@MultiverseWizard]

You missed swimming.. I wonder what that feels like :D. Anyhoo loved the video and hope you'll heal fast!

[@brodysearle]

Even though I had a week and a bit off, getting back into it felt super weird haha hopefully all up from here mate!

[@dizzy6593]

Also 8 weeks till my tri, in my 'oh fek' faze

[@brodysearle]

Hahaha it’s a bit like that, but we can only do the best we can at the time!

[@josipbrstilo3338]

Hey brother amazing video I LOVE IT. I have one question. I saw you wear a Coros Apex 2 Pro which i like a lot really. I think it's a beast of a watch. But I am interested in a bike computer that you are using. How do you use your watch and a bike computer?. Do you start a bike workouts on both devices so you can see a workout on coros app as well or do you just track it on a bike computer? I ask that because on a garmin everything is synced in one app. But if you are using different brands you have to use different apps. I know it is a stupid question, but I would like to know.

[@brodysearle]

Hey man! When I’m outside, I just track it on my bike computer, wahoo bolt v2! I don’t track it on my Coros, but I know some people start both 😁

[@StormHaasnoot]

Love the glasses! Whats the name of them? And what size do you wear, im lost

[@brodysearle]

Hey! They’re Oakley EV Radar Path I think! And I think they’re just one size but not entirely sure, have had them for years!

[@joshuafoulds8107]

I watch Tour de France Unchained when I ride
