As of 2016 I have set myself a challenge that I will complete in return for fundraising money for my two chosen charities, which are:

- Cancer Society NZ

- Stroke Foundation.

Both Cancer and Strokes have affected many of my close friends and family. Seeing them battle through life and not giving up has made me more determined to be the best version of myself by pushing my body to its limits. I have always been a runner but never have I ran any longer than a full marathon. Running the South Island will not only be a massive accomplishment for myself but I hope to inspire and motivate others to be the best version of themselves. I also want to encourage others to set themselves goals that are relevant to what their ambitions or hobbies are and be the best at what they do. We are all so grateful for the life we have, we should be extending our skills and bettering ourselves EVERY.

My run will be starting 1st November in Bluff and I will be running up the Island, finishing in Picton.

This run is approx 1000kms.

My second goal is to fundraise $20,000 for this run giving $10,000 to Cancer and $10,000 to Stroke Foundation. I want to thank you so very much for all your kind donations towards this event taking place later this year, I cannot express how much it truly means to me! <3 Kaece

I will be running the length of the South Island from Bluff to Picton and fundraising for Cancer Society and Stroke Foundation. Both that have greatly affected my friends and family over the years. I will be running approx 1000km and my goal is to raise $20,000 that can evenly be divided between my two charities.
