The Longest Round

Former IBF world champion Darren Barker, Edinburgh to Morocco. 1,800 miles cycled through the UK, France and Spain, 21 miles of open-water swimming off Dover, then a solo sail from Gibraltar to Ceuta after one day's training. He crossed the line exactly a year after Ricky Hatton died.

The finish was never the whole story.

The journey was the show.

Days before Ricky Hatton died, Darren interviewed him for his podcast. The Longest Round is the promise that followed — raising money for CALM, where Ricky was a long-standing ambassador. Supported by Just Eat, Pretty Sailing, Certini and kp-pharma.

Rhino's founder was on the crew: filming the road, the setbacks, the good days and the people along the way.
