Boomer's Olympic Splash · 29 September 2023

This charity rehomes and rehabiltates unwanted or abandoned animals, cats, dogs and ex-battery chickens. We provide shelter for them until the right home is found. As a small independent charity, we rely on the generosity of our staff, volunteers and local community to keep our work going.

Story

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and for your valued support.

I've set myself a new fitness challenge to hopefully lose weight, get fit and help a wonderful local charity, Worcestershire Animal Rescue Shelter.  I'm allowing plenty of time to prepare as I have Multiple Sclerosis, ongoing issues from a fractured hip and asthma so I'm aiming for June 22nd 2023. I've chosen an Olympic Triathlon which consists of: a 1 mile swim, 25 mile bike ride and 7 mile walk (not allowed to run, doctors orders!). I'm learning to swim at the Splash where I work and am hugely supported by my wonderful friends there, so going to be working towards this with their help. I've previously completed a cycling challenge and really looking forward to getting back on my bicycle so will be doing this part from the Splash after my swim, to British Camp, currently working on a route. Finally, walking on the hills where I'll be met with my best friend Boomer the Labrador. We spend a lot of hours on the beautiful Malvern Hills where we are so fortunate to live, finishing at North Hill.
