Enduroman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This ultra-distance triathlon starts with an 87-mile run from London's Marble arch to Dover on the Kent coast, then a cross-channel swim to the French coast, and finishes with a 180 mile bike from Calais to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The clock starts at Marble Arch, London and stops at Arc de Triomphe, Paris. Only four athletes have ever completed the challenge, the current record being held by Enduroman's Eddie Ette and currently standing at 80 hours and 5 minutes.
The latest athlete to complete this challenge is West Midlands Police Officer Steve Haywood who undertook this challenge in August 2007 completing the challenge in just under 105 hours despite being delayed by almost 24 hours at Dover by weather conditions.
