Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As a team; myself, Alfie Blanchard and Darren Coleman will be doing a 'triathlon with a twist' in aid of our 3 personal charity choices. I will be running for Macmillan Cancer Support who rely entirely on public donations to offer support to millions of people living with cancer in the UK. To give you an idea of the significance of what they do, 1 in 3 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Macmillan provide practical, medical, financial and emotional support for the people who need it so please help them to continue doing this and sponsor me!

The Event

The Helly Hansen Adventure Challenge Series is a team-adventure journey that will involve off-road running, mountain biking and kayak canoeing. There will also be some special extra challenges thrown in for good measure!

How far... How long?

As a general guide we can expect to run or jog for about 10km. That's between 6 and 7 miles in old money.

We'll cover up to 25 km of mountain biking and possibly up to 1.5km of kayak canoeing but don’t think it is just as simple as this. The three of us have no idea what order the activities will be in and don't know what the 'extra'challenges will involve...!!!

Check out http://www.trailplus.com/helly_hansen.cfm for all the details.
