6 ironmans in 60 days

We all know that doing 1 ironman is a feat in itself. But what about 6 ironmans in 60 days. For those of you who do not know, an ironman is 3.8 km swimming, 180.2 km cycling (that's there and back from bright's grove to london, on) and 42.2 km running (a marathon).

Mike Cabigon, a 32 year old Canadian will attempt to do just that - 6 times. So far, he's 33% there IM France last weekend (in 12:15), IM Switzerland this past weekend (in 11:34). Next is Ironman Austria, Ironman Germany, Ironman UK (the one mark will be doing) and Ironman Canada. Why is he doing this? He's raising money for cancer research but is 40% to his goal of raising $10,000 towards research. I say, if you have some extra dough lying around from not going to the bar or getting that extra coffee for the day - please go to his website and donate. I am. www.endureforthecure.com

And no, I didn't get paid to write this.
