London Triathlon 2005 · 6 August 2005 to 7 August 2005 ·

Jimmy Goddard was paralysed from the chest down as a result of a climbing accident in August 2004. He is now in the final stages of rehabilitation but like other spinal injuries patients, will face ongoing costs for the rest of his life. The Jimmy Goddard Trust Fund has been set up to help give a better chance of leading an independent life again. The fund will also be donating some of the proceeds raised to the Welsh Air Ambulance and Spinal Injuries Association.

Story

Thank you very much for visiting my fundraising page.

On the 7th of August you will be pleased to hear that I completed the 2005 London Triathlon along with the other 18 participants raising money for the Jimmy Goddard Trust.

Not totally happy with my time of 2:53:27 but I beat my initial target of 3 hours. I'll just have to improve it next time!

The leg waxing was also carried out on the 5th of August and I hope to have the film of this painful event, on-line very soon for those who haven't had the opportunity to laugh at it! The hair has started to grow back and is proving quite itchy!

The total at this update (01.09.05) is £444.76 but all post event donations and sponsors are still gratefully received. Many thanks for all your support. Marc For more information about Jimmy's accident and progress toward recovery please visit www.jimmygoddard.com.
