Fireman To Ironman
Fireman to Ironman tell the unique and extremely funny story of how fireman Chris Rainford went from non swimmer to multi ironman finisher in a hilarious 15yr journey. I blends an inspirational athletic rite of passage with some truly side splitting anecdotes, guiding the reader from obscurity to triumph.
When he set out to chart his adventures, triathlete Chris was determined to put a smile on the readers face with every page turn, whilst still retaining the “oh my god, how hard was that” throughout.
From the humble beginnings of learning to swim in trunks out of the lost and found bin and the local pool, to winning £100,000 on ITVs beat a star, Chris entertains in bucket loads with his hybrid account which falls somewhere between Lance Armstrong and Peter Kay. Above all, it is the extraordinary account of how the ridiculously difficult can be achieved with a giant smile e on a particular ugly mug!
