Why I'm doing this

I've always loved polar bears. I'd hate to see them go extinct, so I want to help as much as I can.

On 22 August 2027 I'm doing Ironman Copenhagen: a 3.8 km swim, 180 km bike and 42.2 km run, all in one day. It's my first one, and I'm using it to raise £2,000 for Polar Bears International.

I'm not a pro at swimming, cycling or running, not even close, but I'm training for all three. I'm also doing bake sales and other events to raise money along the way.

I've already spent £1,000 on my race entry, and I'll be paying for accommodation, travel and kit like a wetsuit too. I'm covering all of that myself, so every donation goes to Polar Bears International.

Thanks for your support!
