Puttin' in work for the IMF
Story
Yo
I am participating in this event to raise crucial funds for Rob de Castella's Indigenous Marathon Foundation (IMF). The IMF uses running to provide life-changing pathways and opportunities to Indigenous Australians, and create inspiration Indigenous role models. One of IMF's four key programs is the Indigenous Marathon Project (IMP) which annually selects a group of 12 young Indigenous Australians aged 18-30 and trains them to run in the New York City Marathon - with just six months of training.
This opportunity gives them to courage to unearth their own sense of self-worth and pride by taking on the biggest marathon in the world. Participants also complete a compulsory Certificate IV in Community Recreation, Level 1 Recreational Running Accreditation, First-Aid and CPR qualifications to educate, encourage and motivate their community on the benefits of living an active and healthy lifestyle.
Please support me, and by doing so support this great cause!
Also, I really am not prepared to run 50km but with every extra dollar donated, I will feel that extra slight sense of obligation to finish. So, you can either (a) inspire me to finish the job with your generosity! or (b) pay to have me dutifully, painfully limp throughout Newcastle like the Knights limped through the last decade. It might just feel that long.
THANK YOU!
