Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm Si Roddam, a 38 year old father/husband from Wigan. I have dabbled in endurance sports for a while, from sprint triathlons up to half ironman distance, but in 2022 I will be meeting face to face with the toughest one of them all....Ironman UK! 

For those who don't know, the Ironman Triathlon is made up of a 2.4 mile swim, then 112 miles on the bike, with a marathon to run at the end. A total of 140.6 miles covered during the race. 

It will take a lot of grit and determination to reach the finish line, and months of training before that! So please dig deep and make a donation toward my efforts and support the Joining Jack Charity. 

As a father of two young children (Eva & Henry) I couldn't even begin to imagine what it feels like for your child to be diagnosed with a life threatening illness like Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). It is without doubt a horrible situation and therefore I proudly dedicate my Ironman Triathlon effort to the young Jack Johnson who is currently living with DMD and through his charity Joining Jack, trying to find a cure.

Joining Jack Charity has the ultimate aim of finding a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, one of the most common fatal genetic conditions in the world. Recent scientific breakthroughs mean that the development of a treatment is closer than ever, and this will not only help Jack but all sufferers of DMD.
