Musician, TV star and mental health awareness advocate Bressie is now recruiting four candidates for his next challenge – an Ironman event.
Following the success of his My1000Hours campaign, this the former Blizzards man's latest effort to highlight the benefits of physical activity for a healthy mind and body.
The chosen candidates will take part in a TV show documenting their journey as they train for an Ironman.
The Ironman is a gruelling 70.3 mile event incorporating a 1.9km open water swim, a 90km cycle and a 22km run which tests the physical boundaries of the body and the reserves of the mind. Bressie along with a team of high performance specialists, consisting of physiotherapists, triathlon coaches, nutritionists and psychologists aim to support the four participants to become endurance athletes, develop resilience around their own mental health and also to inspire others to take action.
Candidate requirements:
experience anxiety and/or depression
have a good base level of fitness
would benefit from the training programme
are willing to be documented honestly and emotionally on camera
If you are interested, email [link][email protected][/link] detailing your age, your home life, your sporting past, a brief outline of your experience with anxiety and depression and what benefit you might get from the coaching. Please include a phone number too, so the production team can contact you.
Best of luck!
