Sophia (Yiyi) Mao and Nick Cook are running the Angkor Wat International Half Marathon on 3 December 2017. This internationally recognised half marathon raises relief for the victims of antipersonnel mines in Cambodia. The race is attended by many landmine victims and takes place inside the ruins of Angkor, a World Heritage Site.

We are also running the race as a sponsored pair, raising money for the Indochina Starfish Foundation (ISF), an NGO in Cambodia committed to changing the lives of disadvantaged children. We will also visit one of the ISF schools in Phnom Penh as part of the trip. You can watch a video about ISF or visit their website to see the great work that they do:
