Well, I'm glad that is behind me! Can't say I enjoyed it despite the fabulous scenery. Thanks to everyone who has sponsored me and don't forget you can still make a donation. Every penny helps. Thanks

Race no 305! Follow my rather slow progress via the Lakeland 50 athlete tracker. Not sure of the www but I'm sure it'll be on google somewhere! Still time to sponsor me BTW!

Heading up to Coniston later today, if I don't get a chance to post again I'd like to say a massive thanks to everyone who has sponsored and supported me this season. It's been amazing. If you haven't done so already you can still sponsor me via my just giving page.

All packed and ready to head up for the Lakeland 50. Pack isn't too heavy and my shoulders are fine. Race strategy will be to start hard and try to hang on! Don't fancy being out there all night but what will be will be. It's not too late to sponsor my! :-)

Excellent recovery swim this evening with Tri Team Wigan. Took a bit of flack for the Ironman tan lines. :-)

BMX with my kids this evening probably isn't the greatest prep for Saturday's little walk. They enjoyed watching me faceplant though and are still giggling now!

A good training week so far despite being on a rather boring course. Thanks for the donations so far.

Thinking about entering the Manchester marathon as build up to the Lakeland 50. If I can get to £50 in the next couple of days I'll enter.

Great start to the campaign. Thanks Kate and Steve for your kind donations.
The aim of Team True Spirit is to raise awareness and to generate financial support for our injured servicemen who have returned from the battlefield with life changing injuries.
The Team consists of recovering servicemen and support staff who will be undertaking a series of races in 2012 culminating in Ironman UK Triathlon - the single hardest one day endurance event in the world (2.4m open water swim, 112m bike ride and then a marathon).
You can read more about the team atwww.truespirit.org.uk
By completing these various races and events, the team hope to inspire others to believe that anything is possible.
We are raising funds for 5 very important charities which are detailed below - all these provide essential support to the servicemen and their families at a time when they need it most.
Please help us to help them.
