My mum was diagnosed with Breast Cancer just before Christmas last year, luckily she was vigilant enough to have caught it early and has recently been told it has been completely removed. Macmillian Cancer Support did everything they could and still continue to do everything that can to make her as comfortable and as educated as possible.

I've had far too many conversations about Cancer with a lot of people around me and we know it all affects us but this one was very close to home!

I am competing in Ironman 70.3 Bolton in June and will now be competing in honour of my mum, any and all donations to this incredible charity are welcome!
