Kevin's challenge was to cycle 100 miles, run 25 miles and swim 2.5 miles throughout the month of May to raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK. It is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the UK, killing 11,500 a year; that's one dad, partner, son, brother, granddad, uncle or mate every 45 minutes.
Kevin wanted to raise at least £500 to help fund lifesaving research for men and their families affected by this disease. He explains his approach below and we've included his progress stats above to show how he managed to surpass his fundraising target:
"I train quite a lot generally, and because I've been water skiing since I was 9 years old I decided to base this as my main training regime. In an average month, I would normally do:
So, I was quite confident that I could do it easily enough, however I was now on my medication and to make matters worse, just before I started at the beginning of May I damaged my calf. This meant that I couldn't run! So, I did it by walking and running whenever I could, which is why the times are terrible. Id did not affect my swimming or cycling though :)
I'm extremely grateful to everyone who donated to my challenge, and so pleased that we raised a fantastic £580!"
