For those wondering wtf I'm talking about please see here: http://www.thesufferfest.com/sufferlandrian-commun...

Has anyone on PH tackled this challenge? A couple of us are considering attempting it at work for Sport Relief in March 2016 so it'll be some good winter training (forget about my April marathon..!). How did you build up the training volume? I've done 6 hours in the saddle on the road but not more than about 80 mins on the turbo trainer in one sitting! So some way short at the mo!

Pretty sure someone on the fitness thread "triathlons, ironman threads" did this a while ago.

That's the chap.

My knees won't take any running so the only IM I would do would involve walking the Marathon which is pointless.

Nice one. While i do post on that thread I'd missed that. I'm surprised there aren't more insane people on here that have done it though!
