Help me raise $500 for OUTline and also force me to run a marathon. It's a win win!

Auckland

I'm running the half marathon to raise money for OUTLine. They offer a great phone support line for members of the LGBTIQ+ community and I've been volunteering for them this year.

I've never competed in a marathon before so I thought - just to make it a bit more of a challenge - if I hit my donation goal of $500 I will upgrade from the half marathon and run (or probably walk bits of) the whole marathon.

So this is my callout to get people to force me to run a marathon for the first time, and support a great cause.

I have been volunteering with OUTline this year and I want to help support them to keep doing their great work.

Its done! 1 November 2020

Thank you so much to everyone that donated. This morning at 6am I set off on the Auckland marathon. It was significantly tougher than I thought it would be but I made it to the end in 5 hours, whew. Now my legs needs a bit of R&R. Here is me up the harbour bridge (looking a lot better than after the next 30km!)
