In October 2014 a friend approached me to ask if I would take part in a challenge to raise money for a charity close to her heart . A triathlon, 400m swim, 23k cycle and a 5k run.  To some this may sound easy, but to someone who lazes in the pool whilst going for a swim with the kids, hasn't properly ridden a bike since childhood and who  "isn't built for running!", this is a challenge much bigger than anything I have done before.  

At the time it seemed like a crazy idea, but already the training has started and what seemed like a complete impossibility, still seems a little crazy but already seems to actually be an achievable task.  What is going to be a very difficult personal challenge is already being made easier by the support of the many others involved through #TeamHelen.   This seems to be the perfect opportunity to set myself a personal challenge, stretch myself to the limits, get fitter whilst most importantly,  helping others through raising money for a good cause.

If you are able to donate to help our fundraising for cancer research, I will be really grateful.

Thanks
