Good afternoon all.
In an attempt to do something charitable, I stupidly signed myself up to do the London Triathlon as part of a team. Not the dinky sprint version mind, the ludicrous soul destroying Olympic level version. But have no fear, doing it as a team means I only do one bit (the cycling) so it isn’t going to take 3 years.
Its on August the 4th (a convenient Saturday) and starts at 16:00 so no early starts and its at the Excel Centre where there are a few good pubs and restaurants so you can make a day of it too.
What I’m proposing is two things:
-
Come down and watch the event, its good fun and you can take the piss out of me as I go past. All the other sado-masochistic types will appreciate your support. It means you can have a Saturday afternoon pint in a different place and enjoy a great day out too.
-
Sponsor me as I raise funds for the East End Charity Community Links. The charity provides help and support groups for those that are less priviliged than a lot of us such as playgroups for single parents, legal advice for people with housing issues or work related problems, and even drop in centres for kids which will help get them into music and art whilst keeping them off the streets and from getting into trouble with gangs and the like.
All great stuff I’m sure you’ll agree.
Sponsorship’s easy. Click on the link and fill in as much as you think you can. The money DOESN’T go to my post race beer-fund (unfortunately) but straight from you to the charity’s bank account in a completley safe and secure transaction.
Give a little, give a lot, come and support me or laugh at me, its up to you.
Thanks for your time, and hopefully I’ll see your faces in the crowd as I torture myself mercilessly.
