Arch to Arc (Enduroman) record breaker * Paul Robinson

  • Summary

  • He’s back and he did it!! Age group triathlete Paul Robinson returns to share his story of conquering Arch to Arc. You might remember that Paul was on the show at the beginning of September. At that point, he was waiting to start the Enduroman (Arch to Arc) challenge which is billed as the toughest triathlon in the world for good reason. Run 87 miles from Marble Arch to Dover, swim the English Channel (which is at least 21 miles and could be more due to currents), and then cycle 181 miles from Calais to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Only 59 athletes have ever completed the challenge. Paul also chose to swim without a wetsuit which only 6 of these 59 have done. I’ll spoil the surprise . . Paul finished the event AND set a new record of 67 hours beating the record by over 2 hours. I don’t think that this conversation can truly convey how tough a challenge this was for Paul. You will, however, get a real insight on how a tough mindset can help you overcome almost anything. In this episode we will chat with Paul and his father Dave about:

    • Dealing with the cold while running, swimming and cycling during the night
    • It’s all about mindset
    • F1 style pit stops
    • Amazing restorative benefits of 10-minute power naps
    • Using maths problems to pass the time
    • The huge value of a support team
    • Dave Robinson gives insight on the conflict of being a supporter and a loving parent
