Inigo Calderon doing triathlon for Chestnut Tree House Childrens Hospice

It's not about the bike....! Although that race is rather bike-heavy. Most sprint-distance triathlons are 750m swim, 20k bike, 5k run.

I thought that. Website for the race says 24km which seems more reasonable. Still a lot of hard work though.

Done, hope we can get him past the 1K mark
Calde is a gent. If you've ever thought he's a fine example of a man then why not chip in a small amount to the cause.

I've got to say the hour and a half we had in Inigo's company when he came on the Roar (the weekend of the Palace game) is one of the most pleasurable highlights of the season - if not our entire time on the show.
He was, and is, a funny, relaxed, cool guy who was socially-aware, historically-aware, a football anorak and a bloke very much on the case.
Combine that with his love of playing for Brighton, the whole package of what working for the Albion means to him and - in his own words - being 'a big kid' when dreaming of football, and you've got an all-round top bloke.
His 'big kid' daydream for Wembley? Hoping Tomasz Kuszczak gets sent-off or injured in the last minute, so that he can go in goal and save a penalty, and be a hero.
Gotta love him.

Do you have a link to a podcast of that show ?
Looked on the Albion Roar website and also did a Google search but to no avail .
Shame on you, you should have a full transcript by now, having listened to it on a continuous loop.

We only have the most recent five shows up on iTunes. If you wish to listen 'on a continuous loop', you need to download it into your archive. If you subscribe to the podcast, it will do that automatically.
I would email it, but it's about 50MB.
Bear with me, and I'll sort something out.
Your interview with the man is a FABULOUS recording. I listened to it with a big smile on my face. You can hear his enthusiasm in every sentence.
TLO - I think you may have to find a way to get this interview back on your site or something - you're going to get requests!

Great Testimony to the man, £833 now and rising, how quickly did he reach his target and will he make £1K within the first 24 hours of appealing.
