Olympian Tom Daley has been through some tough physical challenges, so when he says that his journey in Tom Daley\u2019s Hell of a Homecoming was \u201csome of the hardest days of [his] life\u201d, you know he\u2019s really put himself through the wringer this time.<\/p>\n

Daley completed a 290-mile journey from the Aquatics Centre in London, where he won his first Olympic medal, to his hometown of Plymouth, by rowing, running, swimming and cycling in the toughest conditions.<\/p>\n

Not only that, but all of this was done back-to-back, with Daley on little sleep and pushing his body to the limit.<\/p>\n

It was all in aid of raising money for Comic Relief<\/a>, and his journey is set to air as a one-hour special on BBC One tonight (Monday 14th March) at 9pm.<\/p>\n

Now, RadioTimes.com<\/a> has an exclusive first-look clip of Daley\u2019s mammoth journey, and it seems utterly gruelling.<\/p>\n

Take a look at the clip below as Daley deals with physical pains, psychological battles and, erm, chafing.<\/p>
