Personal message
From January to March 2023 some of my fellow Huble team members will run to raise funds for the Huble Foundation and their beneficiaries such as Gift of the Givers. I am slightly late to the party but better late than never and have dragged my amazing supportive partner with me in my quest.
I haven't run more than 5km's in two years and have not done a race in 6 years. In 2008 I ran my first and fastest 10km, my first and fastest half marathon and my first and only full marathon. 15 years later I have entered the Birchwood Half Marathon on the 16th of April. A nice flat and easy race to celebrate my re-entry into the running world.
I would like to raise an ambitious R17,000 (as 17 is my lucky number) and so I'm asking for any donation. All funds raised will then be donated to Gift of the Givers. If you want to say who you are, please feel free to leave your name or you can stay Anonymous
