May 2009 will be an exceptional year for a team of experienced ultra athletes. Why? This hardened team are determined to travel by MAN POWER alone over two continents and one of the largest oceans in the world.

What makes this ordeal so special is that this team will accomplish this ultimate challenge off their own back. They are not entering a competition, because competitive races cannot match the scale and intensity of their ambitions.

This is an original challenge of epic proportions and will be split into three major and quite different consecutive legs.

• Cycling 3,000 miles - the breath of Australia
• Rowing 5,000 miles across the very much un-chartered Indian Ocean
• Run 600 miles - the breadth of Magagascar
