Spencer Matthews: World Record Triathlon on 7 Continents

Spencer Matthews joins Ben Shephard and Andrew Tracey fresh off one of the most extreme endurance challenges ever attempted — completing seven Iron-distance triathlons on seven continents in 21 days. . We break down what that actually involved, from the brutal logistics and relentless travel to the moments where the project nearly fell apart. Spencer opens up about the Antarctic swim that haunted him for months, the safety briefing that made him question whether they should even be doing it, and the moment fear almost stopped everything. Along the way, we get into decision-making under pressure, the difference between toughness and recklessness, and why doing hard things isn’t always about bravado — especially when you’ve got a family waiting at home. .
