Hello, Suz here :) As most of you know, I love running! I always say it’s my therapy :) After running a few marathons, I wanted to do something that seems impossible: Running a hilly Ultramarathon of 89 kilometers in South Africa. The spirit, traditions and comradery of Comrades Marathon in South Africa looks amazing and inspired me to challenge myself to run for 12 hours. I’m so lucky that my friend Gracie wanted to join to run too and together we will conquer this race in June. As part of this goal I wanted to run for a charity and choose Community Chest Durban. This is a non-profit organization that supports 105 charities focused on uplifting vulnerable communities. Their work spans early childhood development, family and youth care, elderly and disability support, and residential care for the homeless and mentally handicapped. They also fund programs for crime prevention, substance abuse rehabilitation, and emergency relief. Donations go directly to these initiatives, ensuring critical services reach those who need them most. Every contribution helps make a real impact—please join me in supporting this cause!
