THOSE of us who slump on our sofas in front of the television, can of beer at hand, half-eaten pizza nearby, will find it hard to believe the achievement of Birmingham policeman Steve Haywood.
He has just run 87 miles from London's Marble Arch to Dover, spent 16 hours swimming 22 miles across the English Channel and then cycled 180 miles to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
Small wonder the challenge – the Enduroman Arch to Arc Triathlon – is reckoned to be one of the hardest endurance events in the world.
Congratulations to Steve on his stunning achievement.
And a warning to any wrong-doers who might cross his path - don't try to out-run him!
