My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

The New York Marathon is the second challenge for Simon and I in our Tri-Continent Triathlon to raise funds for Elephants For Africa to enable the research to get a much needed 4x4 for the research and educational projects. 

We, along with Becs Smith, successfully reached the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro on the charity’s first birthday and now we face our second challenge the New York City Marathon. It will be a particularly hard challenge as Simon and I now live and work at the research camp and so we cannot run - we therefore have to train for a 26 mile run without running - a real challenge!!!!

Please donate and help the 26 miles of pain worth it. Thanks
