Lexi spent her whole Reception year learning to get across the climbing frame, an object lesson in personal tenacity that I'm certain will remain with her for life.

I hope to channel a small portion of that perseverence when I endeavour to complete a balmy 750m lake swim, salubrious 20km bike ride, and jaunty 5km run at the 2022 Blenheim Palace Triathlon on the 28th of May, in support of infrastructure improvements to the children's remarkable primary school, Ark Franklin Academy.

Any small contribution towards my target would be particularly appreciated as I am definitely not in direct competition with Kristin (https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/kristin-urhammer) as to who can solicit the greatest number of individual donations.

Thank you in advance for your generosity in supporting a worthwhile local cause!
