Tri Again is a rip-roaring, wetsuit-struggling, pedal-pushing odyssey that charts one man's journey from a pneumonia-stricken heap to the starting line of Ironman.

After a health scare leaves him gasping not just for air but for meaning, our everyman athlete decides to take on the ultimate challenge: the Ironman triathlon. With his trusty coach and the unexpected camaraderie of friendships found along the way, he sets out on a quest not just for glory, but for redemption.

From the struggles of securing pool time during a global pandemic to the surreal world of virtual training sessions, Tri Again serves up a heartfelt, and sometimes harrowing, account of what it means to push the human body and spirit to their limits - a tale of the incessant pursuit of a finish line that seems forever just around the next bend.

Chris Sheard is an everyman turned Ironman aspirant whose journey from illness to endurance sports is marked by humour, grit and an unwavering spirit. Balancing family life, work and training, his relatable story inspires with its raw honesty and heartfelt insights. He has completed marathons in Manchester, London, Berlin and Tokyo, as well as (spoiler alert) Ironman UK.
