Martin Pritchard-Howarth is currently doing an Ironman triathlon a day for 10 days to raise money for the Paul Lavelle Foundation. One single Ironman is a 2.4-mile (3.9 km) swim, a 112-mile (180.2 km) bicycle ride and a marathon 26.22-mile (42.2 km) run completed in that order, a total of 140.6 miles (226.3 km). He finishes on Sunday 28th in New Brighton with a 6am swim if you want to come along and support him. This was his Wednesday 6am start backed by the local swim community.
