JurassicMan
Swim Cycle Run
2.4m sea 112m / 10,000ft climb Marathon trail / 3,000ft elevation
I’ve never attended a Brutal Events. Neither did a full Ironman. 3.8k swim, 180km bike ride and a marathon to finish it off looks to be in reach. But with such elevation gain – 11,000 ft – am I going to succeed?

Goals

  1. Finish it 
  2. tbd
  3. tbd

Surviving the JurassicMan Triathlon: A Tale of Misadventure

Organised by “Brutal Events” (because who else would dare?), this race offers a journey through the stunning yet punishing Jurassic Coast of England.

Blenheim Weekend Warriors

The Blenheim Palace Triathlon, widely regarded as UK’s most stunning triathlon, combines a world-class event experience, with beautiful scenery and a family day out. So stunning I’m registered to do as many triathlons as I can in 2 days.

Challenge London Middle Distance

Have you ever encountered a book that left you both exhilarated and slightly frustrated? That’s the rollercoaster of emotions I experienced while reading the Wim Hof Method book. While I couldn’t deny the excitement I felt delving into the world of Wim Hof, finishing this relatively short book took me far longer than I initially anticipated.

Windsor & Eton Autumn Duathlon

This is the report of my fastest-ever standard duathlon. A 10k run, 40k bike ride and 5k run all under the 2 hours mark.

Tough Runner Bucks Duathlon is a lovely and challenging event set in Wendover Woods. I will be racing it again for the second time hopping for a new PB.

This was my first attempt at the Marlow Classic Middle distance. And my third one for a middle distance, aka 70.3. Unfortunately, the swim was cancelled but replaced by a run.

IronMan Weymouth 2023 race report

My not-so-serious race report from IronMan Weymouth 2023, where, luckily (?) the swim was cancelled and missed the world championships qualification.
