Story

Hello!

It's finally time to take on a serious challenge and give back to the world I have, for 32 years, been so happily traveling and playing in.

This September, I will be racing 230km across a 5-day period around the base of Mount Kenya, while carrying my own food/water and supplies.

I will be running for the Somerville Heart Foundation, a charity that has been FANTASTIC supporting my family, they focus on Congenital Heart Disease and have been a great support for my brother last year when he underwent heart surgery.

This grueling 5 marathons in 5 days is not for the faint hearted, so please show me some support by donating as much or little as you can.

Thank you!
