Double the challenge, double the impact: Jamie Tulloch takes on Ironman and NYC Marathon for The Foundation

Jamie Tulloch, from Fine & Country The Wirral & Formby and Fine & Country North Wales, is undertaking two monumental sporting challenges in 2025, Ironman Wales in September, followed just six weeks later by the world-renowned New York Marathon in November, all in support of The Fine & Country Foundation.

Jamie is no stranger to pushing his physical and mental limits. A decade after completing his first Ironman triathlon in 2015, he’s gearing up to tackle the gruelling event once again. With a previous time of just under 13 hours, Jamie has set himself the ambitious goal of breaking the 12-hour mark this time around.

“Basically, I like to challenge myself,” says Jamie. “The Ironman has to be up there with one of the hardest sporting events. I swore I’d never do it again, but here I am 10 years on ready to give it another go. It’s definitely not going to be easy, especially with the unpredictable Welsh weather and juggling training around a busy work schedule.”

But Jamie isn’t stopping there. Just six weeks after Ironman Wales, he’ll be lacing up his trainers for the New York Marathon, an event he’s dreamt of participating in for over a decade.

“I’ve been applying for the New York Marathon for 10 years, so it feels like fate that I got in this year, even if the timing isn’t ideal,” he laughs. “I might even run it in fancy dress to boost donations. I’m open to suggestions!”

Jamie is combining both endurance events into one fundraising mission for The Fine & Country Foundation, which supports projects and charities focused on fighting homelessness and poverty.

“I’ve supported various charities over the years, but I’ve wanted to fundraise for The Foundation for a long time,” Jamie adds. “Helping the homeless is a cause that’s really important to me, and I hope these events will inspire friends, family, clients and colleagues to get behind the campaign.”

Having surpassed the milestone of £1 million raised since its inception in 2014, The Fine & Country Foundation remains steadfast in its mission to drive meaningful change through collective giving and grassroots support. Every feat, like Jamie’s, no matter the size, contributes to this growing impact. 

Emilie Despois, Trustee of The Fine & Country Foundation, comments: “Jamie’s dedication and determination to support The Foundation through these incredible physical challenges is inspiring. His efforts will not only raise vital funds, but also awareness of the work we do to support people affected by homelessness. We are incredibly proud to have him as part of the Fine & Country network.”
