Blenheim Palace Triathlon 2014 · 7 June 2014 to 8 June 2014 ·

In 2025-26 our members will be raising funds for City Harvest. We also support footwear education and industry, and a number of charitable organisations including the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers and the Royal Free Hospital.

Story

Hello and thanks for visiting our page!  We are a trio of sisters, making up the only all-female team from the Cordwainers Teams at the Blenheim Triathlon:

Tricia (750m swim): "Why does it say compulsory wet-suits?"

Jenny (19.8km cycle): "Will I need to take the basket off the front of my bike?"

Clare (5.7km run): "Is that further than from Starbucks to the station?"

This is all because in a moment of madness we said we could (probably) beat Dad (Paddy Skinner) and Clare's husband Sasha and son Jack, a rival Cordwainers team.  We've never done anything like this before, so please give generously to spur our unfit bodies into action for some much-needed training, and inspiration for the event itself, so that we don't let the side down in June!

We are raising money for two great charities: Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research, the event's main charity for the year, and LCF (London College of Fashion) 125, the Worshipful Company of Cordwainers' charity for the year.  The total raised from all the Cordwainers Teams will be split equally between the two charities upon completion of the Triathlon.
