1,000 MILES FOR WATER


I have decided to do this in two parts, the first:

On the 3rd of November 2019 I will be leading a 2hr Les Mills RPM class, this will be themed (theme yet to be considered). Participants are not expected to take part for the ENTIRE 2 hours but I do recommend that you come along as this will be an amazing class and I'd hate for you to miss out.

The second part and by far the biggest challenge I have ever attempted!!!

For EVERY day I work in November I will cycle to and from work - that's 20miles EACH way - I will do this along side teaching my regular classes so with the average distance accumilated in these I will reach approximatley 1,000 miles in 21 days - just shy of HALF of Tour De France.

This challenge would be easier if I regulary cycled outside but I have only recently started road cycling, with the weather conditions such and rain and wind making the ride much harder than just cycling in a studio.

I am joining Forces with Les Mills and UNICEF to raise money to have water pumps installed in the Amhara region of Ethiopia, with my goal sitting at £1,000 that equates to 4 water pumps to supply CLEAN, FRESH RUNNING water to the the villages. Allowing children to have a better chance in life as they are able to attend school rather than walk for 4hrs a day to get dirty water for their families to drink and wash with.

Water is something we ALL take for granted, it's only when it is taken from us or we dont have easy access to it that we realise just how much we actually rely on it.

With your help and support we can change lives one drop at a time, YOU could be a part of a better world.

I ask you to please give anything you can to help me change the world and change the lives of these children.

From myself, the Les Mills Tribe, UNICEF and the Children, THANK YOU.
