Challenge Format:
60 consecutive days x (swim 3.8 km + bike 180 km + run 42.2 km)

Date and Location:
October 5 – December 3, 2021 | Canary Islands (Fuerteventura)

About the Course:
Each day followed the same course (except for a few days when slight adjustments were required due to road closures). This consistency allowed for data comparison, including heart rate, speeds, elevation gains, and swimming, cycling, running, and finishing times.

Swimming:
Swimming took place in a 50-meter outdoor pool, requiring 152 laps daily. The start time was 7:30 AM from day 1 to 26. After the time change, from day 27 onwards, swimming began at 7:20 AM. On the final day, it started at 7:00 AM.

Cycling:
Each day involved a single 180 km loop on Fuerteventura’s mountainous terrain with open traffic. According to my Garmin watch, the daily elevation gain was 1,779 meters, with a total of 106,740 meters accumulated over the 60 days. The toughest challenge was Fuerteventura’s characteristic strong winds.

On the 14th day, I had a collision with a car, which damaged my bike and required a replacement. While my bones remained intact, I suffered significant wounds that took a long time to heal, impacting my sleep quality and overall performance.

Team:
The success of this challenge was made possible thanks to my support team. Over 60 days, 41 people ensured I could fully focus on the athletic effort. The team’s responsibilities included assembling and preparing equipment, counting pool laps, providing food, drinks, clothing, and other essential supplies during activities, escorting me on the bike course with a car and on the run course with a bike, and timing my performances. Additionally, they managed social media updates to keep supporters and fans in Estonia informed about my progress and share exciting moments on and off the course.

Challenge Budget:
€123,000 (including equipment and services provided by partners).
