Animal activist and ironman Fabio Spiteri on Friday completed a 1,000 kilometre cycle around Sicily.

The ultra triathlete finished the gruelling challenge in just 56 hours, 16 hours faster than his previous personal record and the third-fastest in history.

The aim of his endeavour, captured in this three-minute video by Steve Zammit Lupi, was to raise €30,000 for animal shelters. €17,000 have been collected so far but people may continue to donate using one of the following options.
