Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving Page.

On 28 July I will be competing in the Virgin Active London Triathlon.  I will be doing the Olympic Distance which is a 1500m swim, a 40K cycle and a 10K run.

I have chosen to ask for sponsorship for this race, to raise money for Diabetes UK.  Last year my youngest sister, Daisy, was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes - a lifelong condition that requires daily insulin injections and strict diet management. Diabetes UK is one of the largest funders of diabetes research and is therefore a charity close to my family's heart. I would like to help this cause in any way I can, and hope that you will assist me in this by donating generously.

Also, completing an Olympic Distance triathlon is a personal challenge for me, and something I have been training hard for all year. I am aiming to get a respectable time and if I am successful I'll consider it a really great achievement.
