EVERY day for the last seven days Mullingar man Gerry Duffy has spent up to 14 hours swimming 2.4 miles, cycling 116 and finishing with a marathon run of 26.2 miles.

Gerry Duffy, 43, and his fellow competitors in the Enduroman Ultra Triathlon Championships, will continue with the herculean daily physical challenge until the event ends on Sunday.

Of the initial 20 entrants, just a handful remain in the competition which is being held in the New Forest, Avon Tyrell in the south of England.
