Heya,
If you know me, and especially if you remember my early teenage and adult years, you will know that I hated running. In fact, I used to say that if you see me run start running as well, as the only reason for me running is imminent danger = running from something or someone Well, things have changed and I discovered running as an adult and actually am quite enjoying it!
So why are we here today? Early January I looked at my calendar, and since I already had a few races in, I thought why not try and run a half marathon a month in 2024 (my knees permitting ). Then the big brother not disappoint and I started getting targeted ads on IG to run and fundraise - so here I am, I'll be travelling around Europe to make it happen so - let's make those kms count!
I will be fundraising for the charities of my choice, and I will keep updating you on the progress on IG (@vespiary). The first initiative I want to support is the Union of Help to Kherson, an NGO run by my dear friend Kate Zhuzha. This NGO focuses on humanitarian aid to the temporarily occupied region of Kherson, Ukraine, with a mission to find and effectively channel support from the international community towards the region & enable civilian population to survive.
Since we are two half marathons in (today I ran the second one - in Barcelona!), let's rally up and raise some funds to make a difference!
Thank you
