The triathlons will be gym based and will range from a half triathlon to full Olympic triathlon. This will involve a 750m swim up to 1500m, a 20k cycle ride up to 40k and a 5k run up to a 10k run.
To date he has completed 13 triathlons including a full Olympic distance triathlon, which took 4 hours to complete.
All the proceeds will go to fund an art project linking young people in the UK and South Africa, which will focus on the concept of Ubuntu – which means humanity and brotherhood (I am because you are). The children will complete art pieces and then have their works exhibited celebrating Ubuntu through sport. The funding raised will pay for resources and artists to assist children to ensure there are no barriers to the children taking part.
