Team Orange and the Ironman 4 the Kidz Foundation lies extremely close to my heart ... By training for Ironman, I have overcome many obstacles in my life and the pure exhilaration and euphoria you experience when running on that red carpet is a feeling that no one can take away from you. I am aiming to do all three Ironman 70.3 events [PE / Durban / Mossel Bay] in order to [1] dedicate them to my twins who were born 3 months premature at 1kg each and spent 58 days in ICU but today are the biggest blessings in life, healthy and happy and have just started high school, just proving yet again that anything is possible; and [2] to raise awareness and funds for those kids less fortunate than us - I have been blessed in abundance but unfortunately many of these charities are not so blessed and are in dire need of assistance. I call these Ironman ventures the RoadToMyDream - Please join me on this road to ensure we can make a difference in the little ones' journeys too! The Angels have come together and the race in PE has already been fully funded! So onwards and upwards we go to raise funds for Durban :-)

TOTAL RAISED FOR PAST EVENTS: R24,100.00
