About Me and the event:

I have competed in Iron distance events in the past and was looking for a fresh challenge. The Brutal Double is a double Ultra-distance event, based in Llanberis, North Wales. http://www.brutalevents.co.uk/the_brutal.html It consists of:

4.8 mile swim in a lake at the foot of Snowdon

224 mile bikeride

52 mile run (Walk, or crawl) including an ascent and descent of Snowdon.

Training is immense and extremely time consuming. I am grateful to my gorgeous wife and my children for having patience with me while I train......
