IRON EAGLE 4 MMIP - A Journey of Awareness Across Canada

13 full distance triathlons in 24 days

Iron Eagle Doug is racing across Canada, raising awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous People. Completing 13 full distance triathlons in every province and territory in 24 days, Doug will highlight the stories, tributes, and memorials for Missing and Murdered Indigenous People.

In Canada, we recently had a National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.  This inquiry was a result of the disproportionately high number of Indigenous people who have either gone missing or were murdered in Canada.    

Doug Hahn is a Canadian triathlete.  He is self-employed in the funeral industry in the city of Winnipeg, and has seen first-hand how these horrific acts affect families and loved ones, and felt that he needed to do something to highlight the work that has been done in this area to remember the victims and to assist Indigenous people to reclaim their power.

This non-profit movement is being undertaken to raise social awareness of the nation-wide issue around Missing and Murdered Indigenous People.  By learning more about the individuals and the families who are directly affected by this issue, we hope Canadians will recognize that it is a serious nation-wide problem that concerns us all.

This is not an effort to make a political statement or drive political changes, nor is it a charitable cause.  Although donations will be sought to help with this effort to raise awareness, this project will not accept funds on behalf of a charitable organization.

Doug Hahn will conduct one Ironman triathlon distance (3.8 km swim, 180 km bike, 42.2 km run, for a total of 226 km or 140.6 miles) in each of the 13 provinces/territories in the shortest feasible time frame of 24 days.
