Story

<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</span></p> <p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></p> <p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span><span>On November 11th - 16th, GVI Cape Town are having our biggest challenge yet! The challenge will be raising funds to directly support two causes in the Cape Town Townships. </span></span></p> <p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span><br></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span>The larger challenge is to complete 350km in 5 days without any motorised transport. For a select bunch of fitness fanatics, this is the task ahead of them. For me, I have taken it upon myself to sign up to complete the whole last day of this intense test of endurance. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span><br></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span>Along with a few dozen others, I will be walking from our base in Fish Hoek to Kirstenbosch Gardens at the foot of Table Mountain. This is about 25km and should take a good 5-6hrs. Then we will be climbing to the top of Table Mountain. This may take 2-3hrs and will complete a very long and arduous day. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span><br></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Any money&nbsp;donated will be going to one of two fantastic causes, </span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span>to help all the wonderful children we work with.
