Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be attempting to do an Ironman triathlon on the 8th August. The triathlon is a 2.4mile swim, 112mile cycle and 26.2mile marathon run.

I have been training for this event for 9 months and it has been a huge challenge (but good fun too!). This time last year I didn't own a bike , hadn't ridden one since I was a child and  I hadn't run for years due to various injuries.

I have decide to use the event to raise money for Diabetes as my dad and granddad died due to the effects of diabetes. Diabetes runs in my family with my uncle and cousins also having diabetes and I have to be regularly checked for it.

All donations no matter how large or small will be really appreciated

Many thanks

Lisa
