It’s Adrian Hanks’ 60th birthday on 6th September and he wants to raise AUS$60,000 by running 60 kilometres, to fund a Solar System for a community village orphanage in South Africa called Botshabelo, that he has been involved with for almost 20 years.
Due to government ‘load-shedding’ of electricity, the village is often left without power for hours at a time. It is not hard to imagine the impact of this on the community, especially for the kids!
This charity run is for anyone who wants to run, jog, or walk. You can do 5, 10, 21, 42, or the full 60 kilometres.
The main event is on the Gold Coast. From the Southport Surf Club as the starting place.
However, you can run anywhere in the world – perhaps organise a community run in your region?
Starts at 5:30 am on the Gold Coast after a short warmup at 5:15 am
Entry is AUS$88 per person – which includes a running shirt.
Entry is AUS$60 per person – with no running shirt.
We also have a 6-person ‘team’ options:
AUS$488 with 6x running shirts
AUS$300 with no running shirts
Each person will receive, for free, access to the new RUN WITH App (valued at $200) which has lots of information and programs on how to improve your running.
For runners on the Gold Coast, your running shirts will be available for pick up 2-weeks before the run, or at the registration desk on run day. For runners else where in Australia, who have opted for $88 (with a running shirt) option, we will post your shirt out to you.
Adrian will be at Botshabelo Village Orphanage in South Africa for a couple of days in September (and on his birthday!) and will live video stream the handing over of the funds raised.
Thank you for supporting us in this great initiative.
