Story

I am short fat and bald. I did the Outlaw Ironman Triathlon on July 1st 2012. A 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile cycle and a 26.2 mile run in 16 hours 45 mins. I did it again in the same time in 2013 but in a Morphsuit to be the first Ironmorph. Continually inspired by my niece Poppy and other children battling serious illness at Birmingham Childrens Hospital a dedicated group of Poppyfielders have taken on the Poppyfields 2013 Challenge. Exercising everyday and paying a £1 fine on the days we miss. Thankyou very much for taking the time to look in and thankyou for your sponsorship.Every penny raised goes to Birmingham Childrens Hospital.

About the charity

It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital. We raise funds to enhance the experience of our patients by providing state of the art medical equipment and facilities and creating a child-friendly environment.
