Team MAD (Mother Trisha and Daughter Rachel) took on one of the world’s most demanding endurance events: the legendary Enduroman Arch to Arc Challenge.
This unique triathlon connects two of the world’s most beautiful cities, London and Paris, by combining an 80-mile run from Marble Arch to Dover, a gruelling English Channel swim, and a 181-mile cycle from Calais to the Arc de Triomphe—all in one continuous effort
