Triple Brutal Triathlon 432 miles across water and earth. · 19 September 2026

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Any donation, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated. Your support will genuinely warm our hearts and help this incredible charity continue the amazing work they do.

On Saturday, 19th September, I will take on a truly gruelling endurance challenge: an iron-distance triathlon repeated three times. That means a 7.2-mile swim, a 348-mile bike ride, and a 77-mile run. The event takes place in Snowdonia, Wales, with a swim in Lake Padarn, a bike course featuring over 9,700 metres of elevation—more than the height of Everest—and a run that includes summiting Snowdon itself all in under 61 hours.

Why am I doing this?

Last year, my 13-year-old son Jake was diagnosed with Autism and Tourette’s syndrome. His journey has been a rollercoaster. Life is incredibly challenging for him—school is tough, daily routines can be overwhelming, and every day brings new obstacles.

I signed up for this event to show him something important: that even when life feels impossibly hard, if we keep moving forward—one step at a time—we can reach places we never thought we could. When things get frightening or uncertain, that’s exactly when we need to stand tall, stay strong, and be ourselves..
