Story

Dean, Richard and myself all lost a significant amount of weight with Cambridge Weight Plan and met each other through this. We are joining together to take part in the inaugural IRONMAN 70.3 Staffordshire triathlon. We're doing it as a RELAY TEAM! A few years ago, we wouldn't have been able to participate due to our own size and weight. Losing our weight has enabled us to take part in this fantastic opportunity. 
IRONMAN® 70.3 Staffordshire consists of a 1.2-mile swim in Chasewater reservoir (DEAN!) and a 56-mile bike course (JEFF!) through the stunning countryside outside Lichfield, Burton-upon-Trent and across Cannock Chase area of outstanding natural beauty. The concluding 13.1 mile run (RICHARD!) will start and finish at the historic Shugborough country estate, the former ancestral home of Lord Lichfield, a renowned royal photographer and cousin of Queen Elizabeth II.
We've chosen to raise money for Help for Heroes because any Serviceman or woman who suffers injuries in the line of duty, deserves the very best support for life. 
This will be the longest Bike Ride I have taken part in to date, so knowing I'm raising money for an amazing charity will keep me spurred on to do you all proud!
