Story
Okehampton's Room 13 Youth Club (ourselves) are holding our very own special version of a triathlon!
The challenge is, with our COMBINED efforts, to:
SWIM the equivalent length of the Tamar, approximately 61 miles (98 km) [not actually in the Tamar, that would be a bit cold!]
CYCLE the equivalent of the circumference of Devon, approximately 350 miles and...
RUN or WALK the equivalent of the length of Devon, coast- coast, (approximately 100 miles).
All within an 8-week deadline!
We are encouraging our young people to get out, about & clock up miles to raise money for our chosen charities. This could either be by themselves, with friends or with family - however they can! To collect donations for charity & add their mileage contributions to our progress map back at the centre...
We will split the donations equally between our youth-centre and the charity chosen by our young people: Splitz Support Services www.splitz.org.
Splitz Support Service is a registered charity delivering support services to adults and young people experiencing the trauma of domestic abuse and sexual violence. Splitz delivers services across south-west England.
