Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

I can't pretend that I'm doing this race purely in order to raise cash for a good cause; I kind of 'enjoy' this kind of thing anyway. Having said that, wouldn't it be wonderful if we could harness the 18th August for something other than putting a smile on my face?

Open Doors is a charity some of us may not know. Katie and I have supported their work for a while and are always impressed with them. They aim to protect, resource and encourage persecuted Christians world-wide. You can find out more here (http://www.opendoorsuk.org/about/how_help.php). 

For those of you who think Robert Downey Jnr when you hear 'Ironman,' let me explain...

An ironman is simply a reeeaally long triathlon (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride, 26.2 mile run) done in one day. I'll be doing mine on 18th August in Shropshire. If you'd like to come and keep Katie company cheering on the sidelines I'm sure she'd be grateful!

Please feel no obligation to give whatsoever!

 

With grateful thanks,
