My story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Ange and Jackie are two ladies, no longer quite in the first flushes of youth and each the proud owner of 3 adopted ex-racing greyhounds, who have decided in 2012 to combine their 1st attempt at an ironman triathlon (2.4 mile / 3.8km swim + 112 mile / 180km bike + 26.2 mile / 42.2km run in 17 hours maximum) with raising money to help with the re-homing of these fabulous dogs when their racing careers end.
Greyhounds are lazy, gentle, couch potatoes who happily spend 23 hours a day asleep and need only 2 short walks a day and lots of TLC to keep them happy. They are generally clean dogs who shed very little hair. Many of them can live happily with children and other dogs.
The Sittingbourne Retired Greyhound Trust was set up to re-home some of the greyhounds retired from racing at the Sittingbourne stadium. Approximately 9,000 greyhounds, typically aged between 4 and 6 years, retire nationwide per year and many of them find their way to the RGT re-homing centres where they are looking for a loving ‘’forever’’ home for the 2nd half of their lives. You can see some of them at http://www.rgtsittingbourne.co.uk/
