Hi everyone

Update 4th Oct 2010 - The Challenge has been achieved

Alison  12 hrs 59 mins 49 s

Judith 13 hrs 1 min 55 s

Simon 14 hrs 9 mins 32 s

Bruce 17 hrs 30 mins

In a mad moment (and thanks to Alison Morrissey) I decided to enter the Challenge Barcelona Triathlon on 3rd October 2010. Three gruelling events one after the other (swim 3.8km in the sea, cycle 180km on the spanish coastal roads then run 42km). Seemed like a good chance to do some fundraising. Three parts to the challenge so three charities to benefit.

Help for Heroes http://www.justgiving.com/Judith-Martin ,

Cancer Research UK http://www.justgiving.com/Judith-Martin-CRUK

and

Special Olympics 2011 (You are on this donation page now)Please feel free to follow the links and donate to the other charities I have chosen to fundraise for. Just think giving a few pounds of your hard earned money is a lot less painful than going through with my challenge.

 

Training is going well at present. Swimming in Kilbirnie Loch - 2.8km completed 6th June 2010. Cycling - longest so far 130km around the roads of Ayrshire 17th July 2010. Running - Thanks to the running gang in Dunlop (Joan, Fiona, Una and our four legged friend Dougal) regularly pounding out distances of up to 14km before breakfast and gradually increasing the distance each week.

One week and we will be there making final preparations. The team are all fit and training has gone well. Now we all just want to get out there and get going.

Fundraising is goin well with the total on and offline donations topping £3000. (ps to Nick Newell  - Alison passed on your sponsorship)

Regular updates on progress will be added.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
