My dream for a long time has been to do a triathlon. But being unable to ride a bike or run this has always been put to the back of my mind. 

Some of you will know that I signed up to a triathlon but the pulled out as the thought of doing a triathlon just now terrified me. So here I am.

On the 31st March I will go to my gym

Run 5k 

Cycle 20k

Swim 400m. 

My swim will as part of the Cancer research and Marie Curie Swimathon and I'll be doing these events back to back just like a 'real triathlon. Everything I would do in a normal triathlon, but upside down and in perfect conditions!

Please help me raise some pennies. Anything you can spare would be  so appreciated by everyone touched with this beast, and ofcourse by me.

Join us for Swimathon 2019 – the World’s largest annual fundraising swim.

Cancer Research UK and Marie Curie are calling on the nation to get down to the pool for Swimathon 2019 – thousands of swimmers, two great causes, one big charity challenge.

Cancer Research UK, the world’s leading cancer charity is dedicated to saving lives through research. They don’t receive any government funding for their work, so their progress is all thanks to the support of people like you.

Marie Curie provides expert care, guidance and support for people living with any terminal illness, and their families. Around 2,100 Marie Curie Nurses work day and night, in people’s homes all over the UK, providing hands-on care to people when they need it most. 

On 29^th – 31^st March 2019, over 21,000 swimmers will be heading down to over 600 pools across the UK to raise money for our two amazing charity partners. 

Together we can really make a difference. We invite our swimmers to tell their story to help spread awareness and raise vital funds for these two incredible causes.
