<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Hi Everyone,</span> <br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">After a challenge from a good friend I have decided to enter the Midsomer Norton Triathlon on 4^th September 2011. &nbsp;This involves a 400m swim then 25km2 Bike ride followed by a 5km2 run. I will be looking to complete this in under 2 hours (but please don't hold me to it!!). </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">For those of you who know me I'm sure you will agree that this will be quite some task as over a 6 week period I need to turn a whole lotta fat into a whole lotta fit and in light of the efforts that I will be putting in I thought I could raise a little cash for a very worthwhile cause (see below). </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">I have selected the Forever Friends Appeal:</span> <br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Basically this is a charity that specialises in providing the R.U.H with state of the art equipment for detecting the early signs of cancer and other life threatening diseases (in adults and Children) which I know have effected the lives of pretty much everyone I know. &nbsp;So please give generously and feel free to come and watch me fall across the finishing line.</span> <br /><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Yours Hopefully</span> <br /><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Scott Coates</span> <br /><br /></p>
