Bahraini adventurer Dr Saqer Al Khalifa has once again demonstrated his remarkable mental and physical endurance by completing one of the toughest challenges in the world of sport – Ironman Switzerland – in 12 hours.
The achievement also brings to a close his more than two-month-long ‘soul searching’ journey from Bahrain to Europe in a 2500 Ram Power Wagon that he had transformed into a luxurious camper.
Speaking to the GDN on his drive back to Bahrain, he described the race as a ‘graduation ceremony’ marking the end of his adventure and expressed his excitement about reuniting with his family just in time for his twin daughters’ 16th birthday celebrations.
