Please sponsor me to complete an Ironman triathlon in July!

Hi, I’m Michelle Kennedy

I’m taking on the incredible challenge of completing a full Ironman triathlon in Leeds — a grueling 140.6 miles covering a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile cycle, and a 26.2-mile marathon run. This is a massive personal challenge, and I need your support to help me push through to the finish line!

To make this journey even more meaningful, I’m fundraising for two fantastic local organisations that make a real difference in my community:

Recyke-a-Bike:

Based in Stirling, Recyke-a-Bike has been transforming lives for over 20 years through the power of cycling. They recycle and refurbish bikes, run inclusive cycling sessions, provide free bike repairs, and deliver vital training and employment opportunities. Their Access to Bikes project helps vulnerable adults, refugees, and children who might not otherwise have access to a bike — opening doors to new adventures, independence, and opportunities.

Rubber Chicken Theatre:

This inspiring local performing arts company offers drama classes, workshops, community shows, and performance opportunities for all ages — from children to retirees. They’re dedicated to making theatre accessible for everyone, fostering confidence, friendships, and skills through the magic of performing arts. No auditions required — just a passion for creativity and community.

How you can help:

Your donation will help me stay motivated and reach my goal, but more importantly, it will support these incredible organisations in their vital work. Every contribution, big or small, helps more people get cycling, gain confidence, and experience the joy of theatre.

Thank you so much for your support!
