About Kathy
SWIM. CLIMB. CONQUER.
This September, Kathy will join some of the world's top triathletes at the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Nice, France.
Set against the stunning backdrop of the French Riviera, this prestigious event will see Kathy take on the ultimate 70.3-mile challenge, consisting of a 1.2-mile swim, 56-mile bike ride, and 13.1-mile run.
The race begins with a swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea before athletes tackle the challenging bike course through the spectacular Alpes-Maritimes mountains, featuring dramatic climbs, thrilling descents, and breathtaking views. The final stage is a half marathon along Nice's iconic Promenade des Anglais, culminating in an unforgettable finish line in the heart of the city.
Kathy is taking on this incredible challenge in support of Jersey Hospice Care, a charity close to her heart, where she proudly serves as a Trustee.
Every donation will help Jersey Hospice Care continue providing compassionate, specialist care and support to Islanders and their families when they need it most.
Fundraiser Updates
See below for updates from the fundraiser on their efforts:
Thank you!
It has been an amazing race, and I was thinking of you all along the way. It was tough, incredibly hot at times, but I gave it everything and I'm so proud to have finished 23rd in the world for my age group!
Being part of an all-women's race was truly special. The camaraderie, encouragement and support from everyone involved was wonderful and made the experience even more memorable.
I'm sorry if I don't manage to thank each of you individually, but please know that your generosity and support mean the world to me, and please accept my heartfelt thanks. Jersey Hospice Care will be so incredibly grateful for every donation received.
As I've said before, without such a wonderful and caring community, Jersey Hospice simply couldn't be there for all of us when we need it most.
Thank you for believing in me, supporting me, and helping make a real difference. ❤️
