Martin was a very dear friend who sadly succumbed to motor neurone disease last year. Martin and I took part in the Blenheim triathlon in 2011. Both of us were triathlon novices but we had a great laugh and made it to the end in one piece...just!

Kathy, Laurie, Mel and Tina have very kindly joined me in wanting to raise money for this very important trust which is working hard to find a cure for motor neurone disease. We will all be swimming, cycling and running around the Blenheim course on Sunday 5th June.
