Join me in making dreams come true for every child as I participate in the Gold Coast Airport Marathon 2016
My Story
8/7/2016
Hello Everyone,
Firstly I would like to thank all my friends and family for your kind donations. This marathon has been a great experience and one that I shall remember for a long time. I completed it in 5hrs 30mins. I had maintained a good pace till I hit the wall at 30km mark. That was the most challenging feat that I have ever done as it is no longer about your physical strength but you mental strength and endurance. I almost wanted to give up as the pain was unbearable. At certain points I broke down cause I just couldn't get my legs to run anymore. I thought about all the trainings I had done. Most importantly the reason I chose to run a full marathon which was for the children of Inspiration Factory. It was that which made me not quit and continue on with the marathon. It was a dream and I fulfilled that dream. Every child deserves to dream and we should help them in anyway we can to achieve it.
Hi everyone,
Firstly thank you for visiting my page. A few weeks ago I was trying to see how I can make myself more useful and was given this idea of tying a fund raiser together with my my participating in Gold Coast Full Marathon 2016. I have been training for the last 6 months and hope to complete the race.
I came across the Inspiration Factory through Our Better World which presented their story. Inspiration Factory supports education for children living in the slumps of Jakarta. These children come from various backgrounds and have gone through much as a child. They believe that every child has a right to have a dream and with their efforts they are making dreams come true for these children. What I found most unique about it was that each child has a dream book that they can write down their dreams and at the end of every week, they look back to see how close they are to reaching their dreams. I would like to help these children achieve their dreams. Every donation that comes in will help these children a long way. I would like to thank you in advance and do look out for my updates as I complete the race this Sunday.
