Back in December I decided to get up and do something meaningful, so I booked a triathlon. Something I'd been thinking about for a couple of years. A big bucket list item!

At the bottom of my training plan, I'd left myself a note: "find a reason that's bigger than you" I know it sounds a bit cringey, but it meant something to me.

It meant months of training through winter and into summer. Every session had a reason to it - raising money for @mssocietyuk

Thanks to everyone's support, we've now passed £2,000.

For anyone interested in the Garmin numbers: I'm around 6kg down, my vo₂ max is up by about 5 & fitness age down by almost 10 years. Definitely the fittest i've ever been.

Mostly though, this video is just something for me to look back on. A reminder of everything that happened between booking it and crossing the finish line.

Side note - I don't think anything has ever hit the spot quite like that pint of full sugar Pepsi afterwards.
