I'm running 105km for mental health and conservation! Help!

Wellington

Kia ora whānau - it's that time of year again! The time where I try to do something absolutely insane in the name of charity.

I'm running another bigger badder scarier ultra marathon in the hopes of raising money for mental health and conservation, but this time I will be running for 105km (65 miles). It will take me 15+ hours to run this and 1000s of hours of preparation. Running has profoundly changed my life in the last couple of years by providing the best medicine for my mental health and helping me to connect even more with nature.

If you want to help protect nature, fund mental health resources, or just support me in running more than you want to drive in a day, please give a few dollars and share with your friends. Ngā mihi and thank you.
