So someone has had the bright idea to organise a relay triathlon to raise money for NEWCIS. What is NEWCIS I hear you cry? Well NEWCIS is a local charity providing information, support, time out, grants and much more to some amazing people. These people are like you and me with the usual problems in life like work, children, family, friends, money, hobbies but with the additional responsibility of caring for a loved one. This care is provided not for payment but out of love, responsibility, duty, or simply because there is no one else. They care throughout the day and night without a break, day off or holiday.
So to treat these wonderful people to a Christmas party where they can have a break and chance to enjoy the festivities I am taking part in this triathlon!
Now calm down I'm sure you'll say you've ran before. But and this is a big one! I'm only starting training now! I also have agreed to do all elements. So I shall hopefully not fall off the bike, drown in the pool or sprain my ankle running!
Remember I swim so I don't drown there's no grace or speed! I'm aiming to do 15 miles of running, cycling and swimming!
Please throw some pennies my way to make sure my idea of hell is worthwhile.
Thank you
I will also sort out a better picture soon!
