My Story

On the 26th of August I will be taking on my first iron distance triathlon consisting of a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile cycle and a marathon distance run (26.2 miles). I think we have all been affected by cancer, whether it be yourself or someone you care about. I have close friends and family that have gone through horrific - but life saving treatments. The only way to tackle it is to continue to understand what causes it and find ways to prevent it through research. I will also be looking for people to join me along the route, whether that be for a section of the cycle or a short stint on the run. If you're in Orkney that weekend and fancy a swim, cycle or run, I'd love to have you. It's an epic distance and something I've not come even close to doing before, so I may be a little nervous! Any donation, large or small, will help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. And your support will most definitely help get me to the that finish line. Thanks for reading!
