My story

 

I did it! What a great day, the conditions were fantastic - light winds and dry but not too hot. I really enjoyed the cycle which took 2hrs 10, then I paddled the loch in 2hrs 7 - the second half of which was tough going. Finally, the run - what a killer! Completed it in 1hr 49 but was practically crawling by the end.....So total time was 6 hrs 7 mins!

Thanks so much to all who sponsored me.

70 Wild Miles is a triathlon consisting of a 47 mile cycle from Glencoe to Taynuilt, a 10 mile kayak along Loch Etive and a 13 mile run UP Glen Etive.

Why am I doing it? To see if I can (because I'm nearly 40!) and to raise money for Clic Sargent. A friend's child was diagnosed with leukaemia 2 years ago and Clic Sargent has been incredibly helpful to the whole family.

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: CLIC Sargent gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
