<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>On 06th&nbsp;August I will be competing in my first (maybe last) OlympicTriathlon in Hyde Park.</p> <p>It's the same course that will be used for&nbsp;the 2012 Olympics, and indeed this particular event is part of the World Championship Series.&nbsp; The race itself comprises of&nbsp;1500m swim, 40km bike ride and closes&nbsp;out with a 10km run.</p> <p>In order to prepare for the event, I've lost about 40lbs in weight ,&nbsp;regularly trained 5-6 times per week and&nbsp;completed a few practice events.&nbsp; I'm hopeful of finishing in one piece, although competing for 3 hours will be a journey into the unknown.</p> <p>All money raised will be going to the Children's Trust Tadworth&nbsp;, which is the Credit Suisse Charity of the Year.&nbsp; <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black; font-size: 11pt;">They <span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">provide care, education, therapy and rehabilitation to children with multiple disabilities, complex health needs and acquired brain injury.</span>&nbsp; Hence it's a very worthy cause.</span></p> <p>Thanks for your support.</p> <p>Stuart</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
