It's happening! The “3 Monkeys” agreed enthusiastically over a glass of wine to swim, cycle and run one of the most stunning, but savage olympic ocean triathlons in the UK, if not the World. On sober reflection, this is one serious challenge.

Short legs run in the family, and sinking has always been easier than swimming, but these three sisters have never let that stop them. Your sponsorship will help them to focus on their gruelling training regimes whilst supporting an incredible charity that helps children and families to improve their mental health.

The team and their tasks are as follows:

1. Lucy - the little (mermaid) sister - 1.5km Atlantic ocean swim

2. Benjamin - the ugly sister - 38km cycle course

3. Anna - the difficult, middle-distance sister - 12km clifftop trail run

Luckily, the North Devon AONB views are as breathtaking as the route, which will keep the monkeys inspired as they grit their teeth to complete each section.

The countdown is on for 6th July!
