Thanks for making it to my page!!

In order to raise some money for a great cause and to give me some inspiration to get fit, I entered the Skipton Triathlon after much goading from work colleagues.  This has involved trying to learn how to swim less like a drowning person, and modifying Charlie's bike so that it is suitable for being on the road.  I may well be the only one doing the triathlon on a full suspension mountain bike!

So if you want to see pictures of me looking horrendous and knackered, please donate and I will make sure I post some pictures of me before/during/after the event - I am sure to look shattered at all stages!!

The Brooke Hospital is a fantastic charity helping people in less fortunate countries care for their animals in order to provide for their families.  I have seen their work first hand in Cairo and Luxor and they truly do a great job, without them many people would be without an income and without food.
