<p>Hey my we are finally there with Karen’s charity no and things up and running and now the just giving site.</p>
<p>The Karen Green Foundation!</p>
<p>I lost my darling wife on the 4th of July 2011.</p>
<p>She died after a monument us fight with leukaemia.</p>
<p>She was 43 Karen and I have two children Ellie and Jenni, who we both love so much.</p>
<p><span> </span>Karen always looked great never moaned always smiling.</p>
<p>Helping inspire other’s in similar positions take strength from her.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On the 1st of July I will be tackling Nottingham’s very own Ironman triathlon ran by one step beyond.</p>
<p>2.4 mile swim, 112 bike race and a marathon…………….OMG.</p>
<p>Am i scarred ! can i do it.................</p>
<p>Of course i am after 60 mile on the bike the other day I felt all in.</p>
<p>Firstly Karen spent the last 3 years defying logic with self-belief and help from the gods.</p>
<p>So I have to believe in myself that things will be ok.</p>
<p> Hope so, I have been training since the beginning of the year.</p>
<p>But only to a limited time, this never really more than 10 hours.</p>
<p>Looking after the girls my business has meant this is how it is.</p>
<p>Injury’s plenty Achilles, trapped nerves, ankle sprain, black out.</p>
<p>I know that the pain that I will go through does not come near to that that Karen suffered for many times over the last 5 years.</p>
<p>I want to raise as much money as possible to help people in Karen’s shoes have a better time of it.</p>
<p>A greater chance of surviving longer or beating this cancer.</p>
<p>Please come and shout for all the other athletes that are doing the outlaw and those who are doing this for the Karen Green Foundation.</p>
<p>Many Thanks</p>
<p>Mick Ellie and Jenni Green.</p>
