Story

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I think it's fantastic that a charitable foundation has now been set up to achieve great things in Simon's memory as he did in life, and I hope we can all support that by either taking part in events like this or donating what we can. Completing the Ponteland triathlon 2014 in particular will be the perfect challenge to remember Si as it's on home turf and he was telling us enthusiastically about getting involved in triathlons the night before he set off for France. I know he would be loving the thought of everyone getting stuck into a big fitness challenge like this and hope we can all do him proud.

I'm taking part in the Ponteland Triathlon and Great North Run 2014 to raise money for Si's foundation and continue the excellent progress that they have made in such a short space of time.
