Story
My name is Robert Brown and I was personally sadenned by the struggle of these children fighting cancer.
Being a father myself it breaks my heart to think of these families.
The charity in which I am supporting is called Aspanob and is a local charity in Palma de Malllorca, whom hope to give comfort and support to these children and any help which can be given is very much appreciated.
For this awareness I have decided over the next 12 - 18 months to train a fittness regime and take part in numerous sporting triathlon events in the build up to what will be ultimately be to take part in and complete (survive) a full Iron Man Competition.
What makes this challenge harder for me is that training for this is something completely new to me. I started to run last year and cycle early this year. Swimming started in June 2017.
List of events
July 20th
7 Days cycling through whats locally called, "The North Coast 500"
This is 500 Miles of britains tallest mountain ranges and most beautiful and rugged scenery.
I have the pleasure of being joined by 2 x Iron Man finisher Dr. Oscar Merino to keep me on the right track.
