HOW WAS IT FOR YOU? IRONMAN LANZAROTE
MEET BEN
Ben Goodfellow, 28, has been racing as a pro since 2023. Born in the north west of England, he found his love of sport while exploring the Lake District. Alongside his racing, he also works as a manufacturing engineer in the aerospace industry.
Ironman Lanzarote. A 3.8km swim in the Atlantic Ocean made up of two laps. A 180.2km bike around the hilly island, while being battered by the persistent winds that the island's renowned for. With a barren, black volcanic moonscape all around, it is like nowhere else. A 42.2km run comprising three laps along the beachfront, with crowds of supporters cheering athletes along while the sun beats down.
