Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Due to the general inactivity/boredom in my life currently, I thought it would be a good idea to do something productive and raise some money for charity, whilst also allowing myself to venture out of my office chair!

Whilst in Canada I am competing in The Woodstock Give-it-a-Tri Triathlon on 6th June.

This involves: 300m swim, 10km bike ride and a 2km run.

After (fingers crossed!) completion of this event I am competing in The London Sprint Triathlon on 7th August

This involves: 750m swim, 20km bike ride and a 5km run

I would really appreciate it if you could sponsor me in these two events.  After having lost a Grandfather and other relatives to Bowel Cancer and no doubt will have other relatives in the future with cancer, the charity I have chosen is Cancer Research UK.  It is a fabulous charity that really strives to find an answer to this horrible disease, so please donate as generously as you feel you can.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thanks very much, I really do appreciate it as the thought of wearing a wetsuit in some grotty water in London isn't particularly inspiring, but this cause is!

P.S. Just to warn you I am setting up a further Just Giving Page after these events for when I do The Great North Run to raise money for Newcastle General Hospital baby unit, who, after 23years, I feel it is about time I paid back!! So don't blow all your generosity in one go!
