Thank you so much to everyone that has sponsored us. It really spurred us on to realise how much we had raised.

This page is still open until 11th Nov, in case anyone has any more last minute donations to make!

Thank you again Emma and Tom, couldn't have done it without you. Particularly Emma on that last leg. Beautiful moments.

From two months to two weeks- getting scared now!!!

I've been asked to write a little bit about why we have chosen to raise money for CRY. Every week 8 apparently fit and healthy young people die suddenly from previously undiagnosed heart conditions. In 2002, Doug and I lost our brother James when he was playing football. Following James' death CRY have been of tremendous practical and emotional support to our family, and to many many others.  Doug has already done an excellent job of fundraising, and I thought that it would be a good time for me to jump on the bandwagon. I've been extremely lucky to have the support of all my friends through the most difficult times, and Emma and Tom have stepped up to train and participate alongside me in the triathlon. Absolute Legends.

It would be lovely to see anyone there on the day who can support- thank you to everyone that has donated so far, and any further donations would be gratefully received.

Thanks,

Amanda x

Golly! Its less than two months away, and Emma, Tom and Amanda have decided that that last little boost we need to motivate our training is all the cash flooding in from our fan base...

We'll be swimming 750m, then cycling 20km, then running 5km ( I think- someone check yeah?!).

If you can't donate, then no worries, but it would be lovely to see you there on the day shouting us on!
