One man – one world – one record?
For Jonas Deichmann problems don’t exist. He knows only one gear: Forward. A challenge no one has achieved before is just an open invitation to the extreme athlete to go above and beyond.

When Deichmann gets on his bike in Munich in September 2020 he faces 450 km of swimming, 19,000 km on his bike and 5,000 km of running – the adventure of a lifetime lies ahead.
