Kai is the son of friends of mine (Morgan and Makiko). Kai has been diagnosed with Anelgman Syndrome. Don’t know what that is? Watch this…

This weekend I am taking part in a Half Ironman distance triathlon (The Highland Warrier). 70.3 miles of swimming, cycling and running (running probably in it’s loosest possible term… by the time I pull my running shoes on I will be lucky to be staggering along). I want to raise as much money as I can to support the research and development for a cure for Angelman Syndrome. Research that could directly help Kai.
To put into context what I am attempting, the longest triathlon I have completed before now is a Sprint distance event (16.5 miles). Please give me motivation and pledge your support. How much is not so important – what is important to me is that as many people as possible pledge some support as I will be using the thought of the number of people supporting me to keep me going on the day.
Thank you to the club members that have already donated, I really appreciate it, but there is always room for more names on the list! Go on, please sponsor me here – http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/JohnBennie
