Not Your Usual Athlete

My guy Mitch

Mitch Hutchcraft - who I met in Croatia - accepts Mission: Impossible, completing the world's longest triathlon, starting with the English Channel, biking 10,000 kilometres across Europe, the Middle East and India to Nepal, trekking/ running to Mount Everest's base camp and, finally, climbing the mountain's peak. In all, it takes nine-months and collects several hundred-thousand Instagram followers, including me, who become invested in Mitch's success.

Mitch nearly bonked on Day-One taking 17 hours to cross The Channel and, admitted by him - it was touch and go.
