At 4am, while most of the world sleeps, Peter Kamau is already 30 minutes into his day, pedaling on his trainer. The 45-year-old electrical engineer specialising in renewable energy has chosen a life most people would call extreme.

He trains three times a day, seven days a week. Morning gym or long runs, lunchtime rides and evening workouts.
