Not sure why this does not have a following on Slowtwitch as other feats of endurance are getting. To me this is a pretty insane epic endurance effort day after day. Started with 450 km of open water swimming ~10km-12km a day (self supported camping on shores/islands along the Mediterranean, currently on the bike leg across Siberia, next up Forrest Gumping across the US).
Hi Anna, what is the format. He mainly bikes and does running and then adds swimming from time to time where it is possible ?

The guy is a legend in the whacky Ultra-adventure biking scene and is doing the Bikepacking version of the around the world triathlon…

Go to his website. It’s worth it.
All solo and unsupported:
He swam the Mediterranean Coast, right now is riding his bike across the Eurasian Continent, and he’ll finish off his World-Triathlon with running across the Americas.
Did I mention solo and unsupported?

Reading the entries on his website only took a few minutes, and they’re very worth it. I’ll be following from here on in and cheering for him.

If he runs through Utah, maybe he can stop in and see the IC, and they can “compare notes”.
He had to switch it up to Mexico for the run. Middle of summer across Mexico is going to be brutal! If you go back and watch some of his facebook posts from Siberia such a crazy extreme difference.
… it looks like Mr. Deichmann arrived at Cancun next to Cuba after 5k km on his feet … riding bike from Lissabon to Munich by bike he’ll accomplish 120 iron man distances around our world … go go go … oJo >>
… the first time I read about Mr. Deichmann I thought … another guy looking for a reason not to shave his beard although he should urgently … ok … he found a very good one … oJo >>
