IronManForBrains

Hi my name is Dave. In just under a year, I'm going to attempt to finish Ironman Australia at Port Macquarie in May 2026 and use the journey to raise awareness for brain cancer - raising money along the way. 

It's a simple equation - One year. One Ironman. One cause: Brain Cancer Research. 

My brother from another mother - Grant Leslie (aka Ali G) has Stage 4 glioblastoma and I am taking on this journey to honour him and his struggles with this disease. 

This is not my first Ironman, but my last was way back in 2012 in Port Macquarie where I struggled home in 16 hours and 51 minutes. 

So - I'm 54, fat and unfit but this is a journey I can't wait to get started on.
