Can you imagine life without clean water to drink? For 1 in 10 people worldwide, it's a daily reality.

To support the work that WaterAid is doing around the world, I have decided to participate in this year's 10k run with the goal of raising funds and awareness. I have volunteered with WaterAid Canada for nine years and have had the opportunity to see some of the work being accomplished overseas. For many, particularly young girls, the availability of clean water in a community can be life changing.

After a 7 year break from running, I am trying to be realistic about my time and have set a goal of finishing the course in a time that is under my age. If I am not walking the next day it will be because the adrenelin got to me in the moment.

Please consider sponsoring me and help to ensure everyone, everywhere can access safe, clean water.
