Matthieu Bonne completes 2nd of 8 triathlons on El Hierro

With the ‘8 islands’ challenge, Bonne wants to inspire people and convey the message that you can achieve a lot with perseverance. That is why he will complete a triathlon every day from 5 to 12 May, each time on a different Canary Island.

His adventure started Thursday morning and if all goes well, he should have completed all the islands before midnight on May 12, 8 triathlons and about 1800 km later. Ideally, Bonne should finish his daily triathlon in about 11-13 hours. He can’t take much longer, because then he would never be in time for the next island and the next day’s triathlon.

The islands are listed in this order: La Palma, El Hierro, La Gomera, Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Graciosa.
