Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page:

In memory of Gwenyth Hill; 24th April 1933 - 24th June 2015.

This new challenge is being held in Snowdonia, organised by Brutal Events and is three Iron distance Triathlons combined. This will comprise of a 7.2 mile swim in the chilly Lake Padarn, a 336 mile cycle in 30 mile loops around the base of Snowdon, including 12 ascents of the Llanberis Pass. Finally the 78.6 mile run will kick off with a climb to the top of Snowdon and back down to finish the distance around the lake.

This is a continuous event and the time limit for this is 64 hours - I think I'm going to need all of it! This means starting at 0700 on Saturday morning and not finishing until late on Monday evening, somehow I'm going to have to eat and get some sleep between laps as well! Good job I like a challenge.

My Mother was diagnosed with lung and liver cancer last year and Exeter Hospiscare were so caring and supportive. They helped to make her  life more comfortable with a stay in the Hospice and follow up aftercare. They were  always cheerful, friendly and attentive to her needs, for which I am very grateful. I'd really like to raise a good amount of money for them, as they rely on donations to help those that need help, comfort and support at a difficult time in their lives.
