After several major achievements, such as summiting Mount Everest, six Guinness World Records for Marathon and Ultra marathons and attempting to swim the English Channel, Maria is now pursuing an unbelievable new feat – attempting to complete 6 Ironman races in 6 continents in the shortest possible time. Maria has never done a full ironman before.

Ironmen are well known to be one of the most challenging endurance races in the world – testing the body with a 3.8 KM swim, a 180km bike ride and a 42.2km run. Athletes spend years training to complete ONE full Ironman, let alone SIX in rapid succession! So why would a regular person with no professional athletic background push themselves this far?  For Maria, it is crystal clear; to raise $479,000.00 for MCF´s education project.
