Story

Many thanks for visiting our Royal Marines Iron Challenge (RMIC) team page, Team Marine 2022. We are delighted to be raising money to support our veterans. The event itself is one of the great sporting challenges in the UK, with three options: Full Iron / Half Iron or Olympic as follows:

Full Iron - Swim 3 laps 3,900m - Bike 4 laps 182km - Run 42.2km

Half Iron - Swim 2 laps 2,600m - Bike 2 laps 91km - Run 21.1km

Olympic - Swim 1 lap 1,300m - Bike 1 lap 45km - Run 10km

It’s on Sunday 18th September 2022. Such is the nature of the terrain though that in the Full Iron course the cycle alone is the equivalent of going from sea level to the summit of Ben Nevis twice, and the marathon the equivalent of running from sea level to the top of Scafell Pike - the tallest peak in England.

Every Royal Marines Iron Challenge team member will be doing their bit to raise money to support Royal Marines veterans, those who have received life altering injuries, and their dependents. It's our chance to give a little something back for those who have sacrificed so much for us. Every swim stroke, every turn of the pedals, and every step on the coast path, raises vital funds for the Royal Marines Charity to continue their work.

Please support us, and help to raise a decent sum on the 19th Sept. Every small donation helps - thanks so much.
