    Only 65 people have ever completed this - 87 mile run / 21 mile swim / 181 mile cycle from London to Paris.
    Lindsey Blair from Troon is one of only 15 women to have completed the event.
    Wow!

    It is a tremendous achievement but make sure if eating in a Buzzworks restaurant that you have a discount Couponn, We were at the nice one at South Queensferry and the guy next to us realised he was the only dinner not getting a discount [the discount just brings their prices down to the average range for the food they provide]

    It's a 21 mile swim in a straight line. She ended up swimming over 50 miles battling currents that sometimes took her back towards England.
