Story

Thanks for visiting my Amazing People Project Fund Raising page.

 

The Amazing People Project is a campaign encouraging 250 people, to raise $250,000 over 250 days by doing something ‘amazing’ for themselves whilst doing something ‘amazing’ for others.  You can find out more by watching this video.

 

 
Today, I achieved my goal of running 11 half marathons in 2011:
 

  1 Clare Valley, SA (3 April) - 2:11:58

  2 Canberra, ACT (10 April) - 2:08:58

  3 Brisbane, QLD (5 June) - 2:07:01

10 Sydney, NSW (18 September) - 2:23:35

11 Penrith Lakes, NSW (1 October) - 2:14:41

 

1/10 - What a feeling! You never know what's possible until you challenge yourself. Whilst the knees are sore, it's been an incredible journey:

 

630 kms

   21.1 kms

   11 half marathons

     7 months

     5 States

     2 pairs ASICS Gel Kayano

     1 tired, but ecstatic runner!

 

So although I've finished the hard yards, think of those less fortunate, be amazing, please click DONATE NOW and help me raise $5,011.11.

 

Our 5 chosen charities are the Starlight Children's Foundation, The Inspire Foundation, Youngcare, CureCancer Australia and Careflight.

The Amazing People Project 2011 Charity Community

There are so many amazing charities in Australia, working to do great things across all areas of our community. Choosing the right charities for The Amazing People Project was in itself quite a challenge! Everyone has a cause dear to their heart and so we tried to choose charities that would cover different categories in our community. We created the criteria that the charity needed to be Australian, able to specify what the money would go towards, be registered for tax deductions so we could receipt our sponsors, and not be primarily government funded. We wanted charities that were doing amazing things for kids, youth, care, cure/research and general community. After several months of research, talking to different charities, these are the 5 ‘amazing’ charities we chose for the 2011 Amazing People Project.
