Story
Hello!
So, um, I went a bit marathon crazy and am apparently going to heave my heffalump self through two half-marathons and a full marathon!
Angkor Wat Half 4th Dec
Hong Kong Half 12th Feb
Kyoto Marathon 19th Feb (I think I might die...)
Now, I plan not to die, but who knows.. It would be great if you could be heroically helpful and support me in this hilarious historical heist to raise some money.
Two of the charities I want to support are local to Hong Kong and the other two are global initiatives:
Mother's Choice: Every child in a loving family. Consisting of Adoption Servies, Pregnant Girl Services, Foster Services, Community Education and a Child Care Home.
SoCo work for equal rights and opportunities for everyone and equal access to social resources. Working from a grassroots level to support those in need.
Liter of Light aim to provide affordable, sustainable solar light to people with limited or no access to electricity using recycled plastic bottles and local materials.
Concern Worldwide work with the world's poorest to transform the lives through education and community support programs.
So if you would like to help me support these great causes, I would really appreciate it.
But wait! There are fun bits!
1) For every £5/HKD50, you will be entered into a lucky draw to win a present from each of the destinations I will be running at i.e. there are three prizes on offer! (I have yet to decide what they will be, but they will from the country and FUN!) (You do need to leave a name though)
2) If you would like to take a guess at how long it will take me to complete the full marathon (assuming I finish...), the closest guess wins a prize from Kyoto also! Fill in the Google Form if you would like to take part.

I would love to be able to send £100 to each charity, so if you could help me out, that would be amazing!
Thanks!!
PS if in HK and no GBP acc, can give cash!

8 years agoWe made it! I only had to walk 37 steps. Not sure if I finished though. Had a moment and woke up in the FA tent. But definitely finished just over 20km! Lesson learned - stay cool.
