Story

XTRM Hercules , born with the idea to consolidate on the calendar as one of the most important tests of average distance of the country. This is the first Middle Distance Triathlon (1.9 km swim, 90 km cycling and 21.1 km running) held in the city of La Coruña in Galicia and the first running in a completely urban circuit.

It was decided in January that my dad Joe, my brother Jim and myself would enter this challenge as it would give us something to focus on when mum died, she was such a massive part of our lives that suddenly nothing else seemed to matter...... By signing up it gave us a goal, and with every training session, I thought of her and the strength she had in her own life... A friend recently suggested I start a just giving page in her memory, it seemed fitting as she was so generous in her own life..... I chose D.E.C. as I know it was one of the many charities she supported, especially during a natural disaster such as the typhoon in the Philippines last year.

She is sorely missed but I know that she's in a better place and would be happy to see people less fortunate benefit in her memory.

Thank you for any donations given, every bit makes a difference xxx
