Story
It’s amazing what you can achieve when you put your mind to it!
In order to prepare for the Iron Man race, I will be training and conditioning the body for over 12 Months. I will also enter a number of single discipline events, along with two Half Iron Man races to get ready for the big day:
Sunday 16 June - Half Iron Man Race
Saturday 3rd August - Half Iron Man Race
Sunday 8th September - Grand Finale - Iron Man Wales
Check out the challenge on this link ... http://ironmanwales.com/
I am undertaking the Iron Man challenge to raise funds for Herefordshire Mind and show my appreciation for the support they have given to me in the past. Health and fitness has changed my life, it has given me the confidence and inspiration to believe I can apply myself to prepare for and take on the Iron Man Challenge.
Raising funds for Herefordshire Mind and having a healthy mind is important to me. As the only specialist voluntary sector mental health organisation in Herefordshire they provide an invaluable community service for anyone experiencing a mental health problem.
Therefore, my main goal will be to take on the Iron Man Wales challenge in September, accompanied by other big events. I also want to support the time-to-change (www.time-to-change.co.uk ) mantra - 'Let’s end mental health discrimination'. By taking on the challenge I will aim to help clients of Herefordshire Mind, and others, believe they can achieve what they want to - if they put their minds to it!
The preparation to deliver the goal will be a huge personal commitment for me and my Wife, in supporting me all the way, as she has always done. There will be lots of cold, dark, wet, and, hopefully, some sunny mornings, and plenty of sweat (probably a few tears too) on the way.
Please show your support and kindly donate funds to Herefordshire Mind so they can support others to believe in themselves!
Thank you for your support.
