Story
I have challenged myself to take my jogging to a new level this year and am taking part in the upcoming Women’s Mini Marathon, which is happening on Monday June 1st.
In addition to taking on my first 10k, I am raising money to support our women’s rights work at Amnesty International, particularly the My Body My Rights campaign which is working so that women’s lives can be free from all forms of sexual violence, including rape, female genital mutilation, forced pregnancy, forced abortion and forced sterilisation.
This is my first time taking part in an event like this and I would truly appreciate if you could offer a donation – whatever you can afford to give – every cent makes a difference and will motivate me to keep running – no matter how much I want to stop!!
