I am taking part in the London Triathlon, 8th August 2015, this will involve 1500m swim in the Thames, 40km Cycle followed by 10km run.
I took part in the sprint 2 years ago, this was a real challenge - I have now decided to take part in the full triathlon which will really test my fitness levels - especially my swimming.
My training has already started, cycling home from Drumchapel 4 days away coupled with numerous visits to the gym. I will really need to up my fitness training and have already booked in a few 1:1 swimming lessons - lets just say swimming is not my strong point.
I am raising funds for a charity that has helped support my family and also My friend and training partner Grant Richardson who has been supported by Yorkhill in the recovery of his daughter, Kate. This is probably the main reason I decided to compete in this event. To support a friend, while raising funds for a fantastic cause.
I will post updates on our progress.
Thanks
