Hi

Firstly thanks for taking the time to even click through this far. I'll try and be brief.

The honest truth is I'd like you to sponsor me. Not for me but for GOSH. Like all charities it's worthwhile and life changing for those it supports. You can check out more on their website here:

But I guess you really want to know why you should sponsor me. What pain, heartache, mental battles will I go through to earn your cash. Well.......I've decide to try and take of the Alpe D'huez half ironman. Some of you might of heard of it from the Tour de France and others of you may have skied down it. Well I'm going to cycle up it. Before that though I'm going to be swimming 2.2km, dragging my body through 115km of mountain roads (including the infamous 24 alpe d'huez switch backs) and then running a half marathon at altitude. Longer than a days work, there will be little speed involved in this race, but a challenge I think worthy of a contribution to GOSH. I can't say I'm looking forward to it that much but then nor do children or families who find themselves in Great Ormand Street Hospital. So this is my challenge and I hope to try and give something back to those who face life challenges they have no choice in taking on. If you can support me please do.

Cheers

CJ
