Sara Tye, founder and managing director of redheadPR said: "I'm delighted to support such a fantastic challenge. On a personal level and as a business, I am committed to supporting challenges such as these. A triathlete myself, I understand the dedication, discipline and hard work that goes into completing an Ironman.
