Story
I'm participating in the Vita Foundation's The Ultimate Trek for Kids, supporting Act for Kids.
The Vita Foundation is a major sponsor of Act for Kids' protective behaviours program Learn to Be Safe with Emmy and Friends. This evidence-based program is facilitated by professionals for children in grade one, and helps children learn to identify when they don't feel safe, and know safe adults they can ask for help.
To help us support and raise awareness of this fantastic program, I (along with other Vita team members) am participating in The Ultimate Trek for Kids. Together, we're running, walking, cycling, and swimming the length of Highway 1: 15,000kms.
Me personally, I am undertaking to run (with some walking) ONE MARATHON PER WEEK, for four weeks, starting Monday 2nd March, thru to Sunday 29th March. This will be quite a grueling program (168.8 kms), but worth it for such a great cause.
How can you help I hear you ask? You can run with me :), or you can put your hand in your pocket and donate to my fund raising page and help me raise some money for this great cause. It all adds up, and it can make real differences to vulnerable children's lives. So please get behind this great Vita foundation initiative, and support me in my quest to run (and walk) 4 marathons in 4 weeks.
Thanks for your support!
