Thank you to all my friends and supporters who have contributed to my cause for saving the remaining wild tigers on our planet - I have reached 120% of my fund raising target now with T minus 3 days left before lift off from the race launch pad in the south coast of England!

T minus 4 days left before the Great South Run begins and I am grateful to all my friends and supporters for helping me to reach 120% of my fund raising target so keep your love for the wild tigers flowing from your hearts!

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In honour of my Earth Tiger father who passed away today the 29th of September 2012 after collapsing from a massive heart attack while he was on his routine early morning jog back home in Shillong north east India, I am going to train much harder and run every mile of this race for him. 

He knows that his Wood Tiger son is a global nomad who is born free to roam the planet and he was proud of me when I told him that I had decided to run 10 miles in the Great South Run on 28th of October 2012 to support the work of the Born Free Foundation.

He told me to wake up early every morning and train harder since I had just a month left when I spoke to him over the phone yesterday. I just can't believe that he is gone now and I will really miss him dearly.

But the show must go on so I am asking all my friends around the world to please pledge £10 for the 10 miles for me in rememberance of my father who had inspired me to be a runner from a young age. He wanted me to continue supporting the amazing work of this charity which is led by an inspirational woman I respect Virginia McKenna OBE, Founder and Trustee.

Virginia and her team have recently rescued Lions kept in captivity in Ethiopia and reintegrated them in their natural habitat. I am looking forward to working with her in India to protect the remaining endangered wild tigers.

So please dig deep and donate now.
