"Two Decades - One Decathlon" 2012 Ten Sporting Challenges

For over 20 years, Bruce Elkins, a director at CW Fellowes, has raised thousands of pounds for local charities by completing various sporting challenges, in particular, cycling and for his efforts he has been nicknamed "Bionic Bruce," after having both his hips resurfaced and metal parts inserted, known as metal-on-metal hip resurfacing.

He is currently taking a year off from fundraising to plan his sporting challenge for 2012!

In the Olympic year and the firm's 21st birthday he is preparing for a decathlon of events consisting of Olympic disciplines, which will make 2012 a year to remember.
 
He plans to start the challenges on his youngest daughter, Rachel's birthday, on the 21 February 2012 and aims to finish on his oldest daughter, Gemma's birthday on the 20th December (20.12.2012!!)

He would like as many people as possible to join him in his challenges to help raise £50,000 for 3 fantastic local charities, The Rose Road Association, Wessex Cancer Trust and The Rainbow Centre.
