Running from LA to Vegas (through Death Valley!) · 27 March 2024
Soon our incredible team of runners and crew will be travelling to the USA to take part in The Speed Project 2024. It’s a 340 mile (550km), non-stop, 48-hour team endurance running event that starts at the Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles and finishes at the 'Welcome to Las Vegas' sign. We will run day and night and in temperatures as hot as 40 degrees through Death Valley, hopefully avoiding coyotes, scorpions and rattlesnakes in the Mojave Desert! Unsurprisingly, we are not just doing this for fun and are hoping to raise a significant amount of money for a fantastic cause.
We are running to raise money for Nepal Youth Foundation UK (NYF); NYF offers hope and opportunity to some of Nepal’s most impoverished children. The race is on to fund critical projects supporting children to remain in school, recover from malnutrition, provide psychological counselling and help them to not just survive extreme poverty and caste discrimination, but actually thrive.
We are so tremendously grateful of your support. Please help us reach our ambitious target of £100,000 and help us to stop cruel things happening to children and young people by giving them healthcare, education and opportunity.
