Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

During December last year when my dad was very ill, Marie Curie provided nurses to help with care, so that the burden on my Mum, brother and myself was eased allowing for my dad to stay at home and fulfil his last wish.

Seeing first-hand how helpful and vital the services Marie Curie nurses provide are, I felt I wanted to give something back to the charity. My dad had also been a long-time supporter of Marie Curie and as well as supporting them myself, I thought if I undertook a few personal challenges, I could raise some sponsorship from undertaking these challenges.

What I have decided to do is take part in 4 events over the 5 weekends in the month of May, these events are; on the 3rd of May the Deeside triathlon (36 mile road cycle, 11 mile trail run and a 15 mile kayak), The Etape Caledonia (an 81 mile road cycle through Highland Perthshire) on the 10th of May. A short distance triathlon at the Keswick mountain festival (400m open water swim, 20km road cycle and a 5km trail run) on the 16th of May. Lastly the Edinburgh Marathon on the 31st of May.

I would be more than grateful if you wish to support me through a donation and help me raise funds for this worthy charity.
