Sara Butler is a BRAT who has been invited to become part of the National Development Squad for Paratriathletes. This is great news for her and a testament to her talent, fitness, enthusiasm and dedication. It also reflects well on the BRAT Club as a whole. Sara is partially sighted and is a regular at the Wednesday evening run sessions and Sunday Tivi swim sessions. Her participation in the club is largely thanks to Geoff Moyes, who has special coaching qualifications for partially sighted paratriathletes. The BRAT Club are going to raise funds to help Sara buy a tandem racing bike. We raised over £300 at the Annual Awards Dinner by auctioning the table flower arrangements (thanks Julie Washbourne and House of Flowers!). Could those of you who took flowers home, but haven't yet paid (you know who you are!) please make a cheque out to "The Triathlete Development Fund" and give it to either Mark or Chris Hirsch, or Tauny or Debbie Southwood, for banking? There will be further fund raising events for Sara throughout the year, the next being at the 1st BRAT Aquathlon planned for May 14th at Bittell Reservoir. If anyone wants to make an independent donation, please let us know.
