Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. For some reason I have volunteered along with some friends to take part in my first ever Triathlon on the 11th September 2011. This is to raise money for LINC, Leukaemia Intensive Chemotherapy. Although I do visit the gym on a regular basis, Swimming, cycling and running arent exactly my first choice of activities! With that in mind, although not giant distances, its going to be tough, especially the swimming part! 

Fortunately im not doing this alone and will be participating as part of a team of 6, we are aptly named the 'Tri Hards'. In addition to myself, the other team members are;

Dan 'It was my stupid idea in the first place' Cook
Phil 'I havent been on a bike in 15 years' Cottam
Mike 'Been training with booze and cigars' Hedges
Jed 'Im an old dog at this' Groves
Andrew 'I go to the gym to eat, not train' Newland 

So in all, a motley crew (raising money for their various charities) and should all 6 of us make it across the finish line, i will be nothing short of amazed! That said, it is a good cause and any donation you can spare, would be gratefully received. I managed to raise £2000 earlier this year for comic relief through donations from friends, colleagues and family, it would be great to achieve something similar. Please give generously!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
