<p>Thanks for your help in donating! Our team came 4th in the Nomura Challenge out of 13 teams and it was a great 24 hours of racing!</p> <p><a title="How to raise &pound;1000+ for charity" href="http://www.cogitoathlete.com/2011/07/raise1000forcharity/" target="_blank">http://www.cogitoathlete.com/2011/07/raise1000forcharity/</a></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">To raise money for <span style="color: #33cccc;"><strong>Teenage Cancer Trust</strong></span>, I will be taking part in a gruelling challenge in the Brecon Beacons (<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Wales</strong></span> for those of you who don&rsquo;t know..). The main parts of the challenge are an <span style="color: #000000;"><strong>18 mile hike, a 15 mile cycle, a 1.5 mile run and a 9 mile canoe race</strong></span> and <span style="color: #000000;"><strong>EVERY SINGLE PENNY YOU DONATE WILL GO DIRECTLY TO CHARITY</strong></span>. I have already paid all of my costs and made donations to get things moving.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: #000080;">I hate asking, but it&rsquo;s a cause worthwhile. <span style="color: #33cccc;"><strong>Teenage Cancer Trust</strong></span> specialise in 13 to 24 year olds with cancer, providing funding for research for cures and treatment, provide support networks and build specialist cancer units in hospitals amongst other things. Not asking </span>for much, <strong>a &pound;5 or &pound;10 here or there</strong>. Even &pound;1!!! Whatever you can spare :D</p> <p>To see how hard I've been training for the challenge, look here:</p> <p><a title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkFtV2eUcYM" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkFtV2eUcYM" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkFtV2eUcYM</a></p>
