Richards Ride London 100 & Ironman 70.3 challenge

June 13, 2022 by pelicanadmin

Richard works for Pelican as our Finance & Office Manager. If you phone or email our office, Richard picks it up. If you’ve been to one of our courses or meetings, Richard’s the smiling face that greets you (& the person swiftly disappearing to fix inevitable tech issues!). Richard makes things happen & keeps Pelican pushing forward.

Richard not only undertook Ride London-Essex 100, he doubled the difficulty & signed up to 2 events -13 days apart! After getting off the bike in London – 102.3 miles later! – he headed to Ironman 70.3 Staffordshire, to complete a huge triathlon – a 1.2 mile reservoir swim, a 56 mile cycle and 13.1 mile run. You can read about his challenge and sponsor him on his page – www.justgiving.com/fundraising/richard-moore87

Results

  • Ride London-Essex 100 – TIME: 06:39:16 completed 102.3 mile cycle
  • Ironman 70.3 Staffordshire – TIME: 06:39:21 completed 1.2 mile reservoir swim, 56 mile cycle and 13.1 mile run

Congratulations, all the training paid off. We are so proud!

“I am taking part in Ride London-Essex 100 and Ironman 70.3 Staffordshire in aid of Pelican Cancer Foundation. I have worked for Pelican since November 2015 and the charity means so much to me! I would be so grateful for any and all support.

Ride London-Essex 100 is a 100 mile bike ride starting in central London heading out to Essex before heading back to London to finish on Tower bridge. Ironman 70.3 Staffordshire is a triathlon comprising of a 1.2 mile swim, a 56 mile cycle and 13.1 mile run. These two events will push me to my absolute limits. I have been training since the start of the year and it had been so hard to keep motivated, but I am determined to achieve my goal of finishing both events in one piece!

Being part of the Pelican team, I have been able to see the massive impact this small charity has and it’s mind blowing! It’s ability to support medical policy change, through seed funding ground-breaking research and organising national education programmes is fantastic. Being part of the positive changes made to diagnosis and treatment for cancer patients is a privilege.  

I am so proud to work for such a small but mighty charity and want to do a everything to help secure its future after such a difficult two year!”
