Local triathlete David Micallef and his crew are taking on an absolutely insane 330 km endurance challenge right here in Malta, while raising vital funds for the Inspire Foundation.
The event, named “Together To Inspire,” runs from Friday, November 14th, to Sunday, November 16th, 2025. David will be running, swimming and cycling across both Malta and Gozo!
What’s the Route?
Starting in Mġarr at 11:00 PM on Friday night, David will kick off the journey with a cycle around Malta. But that’s just the start of the adventure. David will swim to Gozo, run around the island, and then swim back to Malta and cycles the island once again. He then swims to and around Comino, runs that island, and swims back to Malta one final time.
He’s scheduled to arrive back at Marfa at around 9:00 AM on Sunday morning.
Meet the Athlete: David Micallef
David Micallef isn’t new to extreme endurance. He already holds the national record for the Double Ironman and has completed the Marathon des Sables (a super-marathon across the Sahara) and the Ultra Oceanman 25 km swim.
As David says, “This event isn’t just about fundraising, it’s a reminder that life is an endurance test. We want to mirror the resilience of those supported by Inspire and push ourselves beyond our limits.”
Support Inspire
As mentioned, this massive effort also includes raising funds for the Inspire Foundation, Malta’s leading NGO for disability services. Inspire provides essential support, therapy, and social inclusion programmes for individuals with disabilities and their families.
