Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and for all of&nbsp;your previous donations.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Having completed triathlons and marathons&nbsp;recently&nbsp;to raise money for&nbsp;St Clare's Hospice, I felt that a new harder challenge was needed for 2011 to get you to dig deep and donate your hard earned money once again.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>So what could be more difficult....how about: <strong>2.4 mile swim</strong> followed by <strong>112 mile bike ride </strong>followed by <strong>26.2 mile run&nbsp;</strong>in ONE DAY!! On top of this it will be in the summer heat with mountain climbs.....on the plus side it is in&nbsp;beautiful Nice&nbsp;(anyone up for a trip to France??)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Once again I am dedicating this exhausting race in memory of my dear friend Kenneth Archer who&nbsp;we lost to cancer. This year I am also fortunate enough to dedicate it to my baby boy George Henry Foster.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Your generous donations will be given to St Clare's Hospice - a local charity that gives vital care and support to those fighting the battle with cancer and other life threatening&nbsp;illnesses. Visit <a href="http://www.stclarehospice.org.uk/">www.stclarehospice.org.uk</a>&nbsp;for further info about the charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Frances would also like me to mention how tough it will be for her having to deal with my gruesome training schedule and the laborious task of spectating in Nice...it's a tough job but someone's go to do it.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">&nbsp;</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">&nbsp;</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Please give whatever you can for this worthy cause.</span></strong></p>
