Story

Thank you for visiting my sponsorship page.

Two daft rugby lads gan biking, hiking and Kayaking!!

Im hitting the ripe old of age of 40 this year so I've decided to do some challenges. What better way to do it by raising some money for an amazing charity, by doing an "adventurers triathlon" with my good pal Ollie.

The charity helps with medical research for babies/children's diseases, helps with preventative treatments and medications.

It's a charity close to home, as me and my wife suffered the devastating heartbreak of the still birth of our beautiful daughter, Harper in 2019. The money raised will go towards research to help prevent others having to go through that heartbreak.

I have no doubt I will have to give ollie a piggy back or a fronter to get him owa the line, buts that's what friends are for!!

So please donate as much as you can, it all helps. Plus, I'm sure you could all have a good laugh at the pictures of us in Lycra once we've completed it.

Martin

I’m excited to be participating in a charity triathlon for action medical research. Through this challenge, I hope to not only push myself physically but also drag Martin to.

The reason I’m taking part in this triathlon is to push myself and do something different and someone has to make sure martin doesnt do something silly.This event is a way for me to contribute to a cause that helps those in need. Every stroke, pedal, and stride will represent my commitment to making a difference. Thank you for your support!
