Bressie’s Ironminders begin their arduous journey as they undertake challenges which will affect them mentally and physically. To the uninititated every step is a major task, from learning to swim, and swim in Open Water to completing their first sprint triathlon, at just a third of the distance they must complete at series end. For each it means facing fears, and working in a taxing training regimen in around their already busy daily and family lives. Bressie leads the way by signing up to the Dublin Ironman event, but he too suffers a setback and the pressure to lead, weighs heavily on his broad shoulders.
