My personal message:

Ever wondered what you would do if you were to become paralised through injury or illness?  The meer thought petrifies me.

Over 1,000 people in the UK have to face that harsh reality every year due to injury to their Spinal Column.

The Spinal Injuries Association helps people come to terms with their injury and helps them find a new life.

In doing Ironman South Africa I'm hoping that with your sponsorship we can help people to come to terms of a life of paralysis.

The Ironman is a triathlon that involves a 2.4mile swim, followed by a 112mile bike ride and concludes by running a marathon.  These are consequative events and on 13th April in Port Elizabeth I'll be lining up with 1800 others and aiming to complete within 12 hours.

Later in the year I shall be participating in the first every UK Double-Ironman as part of a 3 man relay and also competing in the UK Ironman on 7th September.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Spinal Injuries Association 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
