Katie Shaw: Katie, Linden & Emily v the Hever Castle Triathlon

on 29 Sep 2013 in Hever Castle, West Kent

Between us, Emily, Linden and I have known Hermione for 43 years - pretty impressive, given that Hermione herself has yet to hit the big 3.0. So we figured it's high time we supported the wonder that is The DoNation by taking part in this triathlon together.

I'll be swimming my way through the apparently weed-infested lake, before Emily pedals like crazy round the cycle route, handing onto Dr Stocker (of Women's Hour fame) to bring us in for a home run.

The stunning setting of the triathlon serves as a great reminder of just how ace this planet is that The DoNation is encouraging people to protect. So go on, get DOING!

Yes, I'm asking you to sponsor me... But no, I'm not asking you to give me your change: I'm asking you to create change.

The DoNation is all about creating a more sustainable world, about protecting the environment on which our livelihoods depend. And the environment needs our action more than it needs our cash.

HOW IT WORKS:
Browse the DoActions and find one (or more) that suits you, then make your pledge(s). Some are really easy; others take a bit more effort.

You only pledge to do your chosen action for two months and all the information you need is provided here on The DoNation, making it really easy to complete. You'll receive a few helpful reminders and then at the end of the two months you'll be asked to confirm how you got on.

So please, get doing!

Thank you!!
