    Our Franny is incredible. I’m in awe! He deserves far more widespread recognition.

    I am amazed he managed to get back out there and finish the fourth ironman. Absolutely unbelievable.

    Reached 802K .. I know his target was 1 million, but this is still a fantastic amount. Well done, Franny.

    I believe he’s been forced to stop today. Any confirmation anyone?

    I'm glad he's taking the advice of his medical team. What he has achieved is already beyond the realms of amazing and he will raise this money. It's not worth ruining his body or killing himself over. Well done Franny. Rest up today and be proud of what you have achieved. Now it's our part to help him reach his much deserved total goal.

    Not unexpected. He has given his body a real pounding and he knew himself the real problem is that there is insufficient time to eat and rest. I'm sure he will want to continue sometime, but his body may decide otherwise. Shame he didn't decide to space the challenge out. Done more than 99.9% of us could...well done, Franny. Now rest!!

    So glad you had the courage to quit before you did yourself permanent damage Franny. Your achievement is quite incredible by any standards.

    Now get some rest and for goodness sake get some proper food inside you!

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he rests up but returns on Sunday for the Southampton marathon.
