On the 9th of August 2009 Lorn will be taking part in the Wick Triathlon which will consist of a 750m swim, 20km cycle, 5km run. Lorn aims to complete the traithlon in about 2 hours. Lorn has been training to get fit and will participate in some other events before the main triathlon in August. Some of these include: 5k santathon in December and a 10k run in May 2009. Lorn is training up to six days a week and her training progress can be followed on lornpearson.spaces.live.com.Lorn has decided to raise money for Leukaemia CARE as she knows people who have lived with and been affected by this cancer and would like to think that she can help raise money through the exercise she does.

Lorn is doing a fantastic job and is training tremendously hard. Please sponsor her by visiting http://www.justgiving.com/lornpearson.
