FATLAD Triathlon Challenge
Supported by
NI Chest Heart and Stroke has been selected by local triathlon company FATLAD as one of its charities for 2026.
FATLAD Director Brain Armstrong said
" FATLAD Challenges is proud to announce its partnership with Northern Ireland Chest Heart and Stroke, a leading charity dedicated to supporting resilience and wellbeing. Together, we’re launching an inspiring initiative that blends physical endurance with mental strength, proving that small daily actions can create lasting impact. This January, we would like to encourage you to take up a FATLAD Challenge:
- Run 5k per day
- Swim 1000m per day
- Cycle 20 miles per day
The challenge is more than fitness—it’s about community, courage, and raising much needed funds. Every stride, stroke, and pedal turn represents solidarity, while fundraising directly supports Chest Heart and Stroke 's vital services.
By joining, you’re not only pushing your own limits but also helping break down stigma and build hope. FATLAD Challenges invites everyone—from seasoned athletes to everyday heroes—to be part of this movement. Together, we can prove that endurance is not just physical, but deeply human."
