Ironman Estonia and LimbPower Charity Fundraising

My name is William Armfield and I have been training for an Ironman, I am currently doing A-Levels but wanted to have another goal in my life. I decided to take on this challenge as I've always been interested in health and fitness but never pushed myself to the maximum potential. Health and fitness has made me gain confidence and made me appreciate taking care of myself and I don't believe I could ever go back. Going for a run or getting up early for a swim clears my mind and makes me value the potential of the human body which I want to push to the limits. I believe that training, competing and pushing my limits in this race will show me what my body can do and give me a sense of direction and purpose. The Ironman is a very costly event, especially if you don't have any of the equipment. The funds that are raised will be used to get essential equipment and travel to and from the event which is being held in Estonia. I am also using this opportunity to support a small charity called LimbPower which supports amputees trying to play sport, 10% of everything I raise will also go towards this charity.
