Three events in one fundraising effort, all completed ... thank you for your support

... I tried to explain my first triathlon to my Grandma, it was a standard olympic distance triathlon, she said "That's nice dear, over how many days do you do that?".

I set my sights on a 3 part challenge culminating in July 2008 with  a Long Distance Triathlon (4km swim; 180km cycle; and 42km run). Although the one I have entered for is in the New Forest, the only way I could explain it was to quote an article I'd once seen:

"it's like jumping into the Thames at St Pauls and swimming to Tower Bridge and back, then cycling to Birmingham and finishing it all off with a marathon" !!!

I started in April with the London Marathon (courtesy of Kisharon Golden Bond place - completed 3 hours 26 mins), a middle distance triathlon in the New Forest (half the long distance event - completed in 5 hours 10 minutes) and then the Forestman on July 13th 2008!!

I have set 'us' a fund raising target of £5000 (well I am not donating all of the money!!!). Kisharon is a fantastic cause serving the a vital need in our community. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Regards

Oliver
