Questioning my sanity. . .

I set myself a major challenge for this year.

I signed up for Gael Force West.  More than a triathlon, the event organisers describe it as Europe's largest multi-sport event, which is now in its fourth year.  The course covers 65km and entails:

* running (on a beach, I think)                                                                     Croagh Patrick:

* then kayaking across Killary Harbour

* then running through a bog, followed by running on road (hooray!)

* then cycling on-road to Croagh Patrick

* then hiking/running up and down Croagh Patrick

* then cycling off-road and on back to Westport

* a small bit more running to the finish line

Currently I can run for two minutes before needing a rest.

Luckily it's not happening till the end of August. So at least I have time to get in shape.

Anyway, given that I work part-time for CARELOCAL (who provide friendship to older people living alone), AND this is truly a huge challenge for me, I plan to raise money for my charity through my participation.  Every penny raised will be very hard earned!

It is totally secure.

Many, many, many thanks : )
