Help me compete in the Ironman KONA World Champs. Need your help to get there.

Given by 40 generous donors in around 3 months

My name is Tom Duncan (TD) I have recently qualified for the World Ironman Championships to be held in Kona Hawaii October 2015.

Auckland

I am a young Ironman triathlete looking to take on the professional ranks later this year and am looking for support and sponsorship partners to help me get there.

My triathlon journey only began 2 years ago, yet already over the last 12 months I have been undefeated in my age group (18-24). At the Asia Pacific Championships 70.3 held in Auckland, I won by over half an hour. I backed up this result recently at Ironman New Zealand again winning by over half an hour. Winning my age group has now qualified me for the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii which I will compete in later this year.

The hard training has now commenced for this event and I will be giving it my all to be on the podium come October.

I have found my passion in Ironman Triathlon.

A typical day for me starts with a 4.45am wake up and breakfast, 5.30am swim start, 7am on site for work, 5.00pm pack up tools, 6pm running or riding my bike, 7.30 working in the boarding hostel helping school students, 8.30 Dinner, 9.29 sleep. I love every day.

My trip and breakdown of costs

Flights - $1400

Accommodation - $900

Race Fees - $1200

Equipment - $800

Food - $1200

Proposed training camp Australia - $1200

Race Wheels - $3500

Running Total - $10,200

Any support would be greatly appreciated. You will see results, and I will be giving you regular up-dates and photos of my training and racing. With your support I will give it my absolutist best and I will be in the best possible shape to represent New Zealand against the best Ironman athletes in the world.

Thank you,

TD
