Some years ago I saw an Ironman Triathlon event on TV and was full of admiration for the incredible athletes that could run a full marathon after a 2.4 mile swim and a 112 mile bike ride!

As I'm not getting any younger I thought I'd better have a go while I could still just about manage all 3 disciplines. My chosen event on September 6th is run by 'Tri for Life' and is not so much Ironman as Puttyman - 400m swim, 20km bike ride and 5km run - but everyone has to start somewhere!

Tri for Life offers people a chance to taste what a taking part in a Triathon is like and raise money for good causes along the way. Please support me, Tri for Life and the charities they support. Find out more about the event at www.triforlife.co.uk 

 

Many thanks,

Paul.
