Story
Our dear family and friends
We are all very excited to take part in Lausanne Marathon 2017 in memory of Rahul, cousin to Tara and Ozan, and nephew to Paddy.
Yes, we are all running!! - not at the same time - mainly due to child care issues :) but over 2 days (21 and 22 Oct ) and of course kids are going first ...
First day, Ozan (age 7) is running 1.2k, and Tara (age 8) 1.5k!
On the 22nd, I am running 10k. Being a regular 5k runner, 10k will push my limits :) however, I promise to do my best.
Paddy will be on 21k route after me. A half marathon!! He worked very hard following the Bupa Half Marathon Training Programme to the letter for the last 3 months with his usual impressive discipline!
Please WISH US GOOD LUCK and donate to our chosen charity BLUE.
Did you know that healthy oceans absorb half of the CO2 we produce !!!
In its short existence, Blue Marine Foundation has already achieved a huge amount of ocean conservation. Established in 2010 by the team behind the film ‘The End of the Line’, which bought the world’s attention to the crisis of overfishing.
It is the charity chosen by the children in Tara and Ozan's school to support this year. Please follow the link below and have a look at their amazing work and achievements:
