Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As you all know I'm an unlikely candidate for a triathlon however after years of happy idleness, and with my 40th on the horizon, I've decided now is as good a time as any to lose a few pounds (kilos), get fit and try and raise some money for what is an excellent cause.

With all this in mind I've signed up for the Abersoch sprint triathlon on 18 June and am nervously counting down the days before the event.  For those of you who don't know it involves a 750 open water swim, a 20k cycle and a 5k run.

I can't say that the training is hugely enjoyable, however my discipline is holding up well so far and I'm reasonably confident I'll make it to the start (and finish) line in one piece and fit enough to do myself justice.

LINC is a local cancer charity in Cheltenham and any donations would be hugely appreciated.
