Hi. Thanks for visiting one of my fundraising pages.

So I did it!! In 1hr 47min which I was very chuffed with. But I could definately do better.... so have signed up for another one on the 4th July in London. This time a 'challenge' distance which means 800m swim (in a lake), 30k bike (on road this time) and 7.5k run.

This site stays open for another 3 months so just after the next one... so that must be worth a few quid eh?

I've chosen 2 charities, this one which is local to Sheffield providing financial and practical support for destitute asylum seekers in the city.

I'm also supporting a Christian charity called Tearfund which is working to overcome global poverty by tackling 5 areas: HIV; challenging injustice; tackling disasters; climate change & water, sanitation and basic services.  Check out www.justgiving.com/allyhobbsabroad if you prefer to give to that one.... Or why not split your donation between the two?
