I love doing sport and last year I took up triathlon with the Leeds Bradford Tri club juniors. I have taken part in the Yorkshire series and have really enjoyed competing with my friends. The races for my age normally consist of a 50m swim, 1.5km bike ride and 600m run. I was successful at these events and achieved a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place during the season. 

To do something special for charity I have decided to do a full Sprint Triathlon like the Brownlee's and Vicky Holland would do in the World Triathlon Series. This will mean I have to swim 750m, ride 20km and run 5km. 

I wanted to raise funds for a cancer charity as my Grandma Rose and Grandad Jim are both living with terminal cancer. They have been very poorly, but are both fighting the illness and trying to continue life in the best way they can. They have both supported me by buy clothes and equipment to help me in my triathlon training and racing. I hope any money I raise will help other people and families who have to cope with loved ones who are very ill.
