Formula 1 driver Jenson Button got active for charity yesterday, August 2, when he competed in the London Triathlon.

The driver completed the 1.5km swim, 40km bike ride and 10km run in just over 2 hours to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

“I have had the pleasure of meeting lots of kids who are supported by the charity at our tests and races,” said Jenson. “It’s a real privilege to be involved with them. The kids are so inspirational and hopefully we can raise enough money to fulfill as many of their dreams as possible.”

Over 13,000 competitors took part in the event.
