Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

I will be taking part in Ironman UK this year in aid primarily of Macmillan Cancer Care. Cancer affects 1 in 3 of us in the UK and Macmillan are there to help people cope with the day to day effects of living with cancer. They are also a force for change in improving the care cancer sufferers receive. Other charities being supported include Leukemia Research, Childres Hospice Association, Breakthrough Breast Cancer, Air Ambulance and St Margrets Hospice.

Ironman (for those of you who I haven't bored yet) consists of a 2.4mile swim followed by a 112 mile bike ride, and finished off with a full marathon. All of this must be completed within the 17 hour time limit.  Please be as generous as you can and make my suffering worth while.

You can keep up to date with my training and racing by visiting by blog:

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Rotary-IronmanUK Triathlon Charities will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.


Many thanks for your support.
