Marrakech Half Marathon

This January, I’ll be taking on the Marrakech Half Marathon — one of the world’s most prestigious races. The route winds through ancient 12th-century ramparts, the Menara gardens, and palm-lined dusty roads, with incredible crowds and atmosphere all along the way.

But this run is about more than a personal challenge.

Why I’m Running

I’m running this half marathon to raise money for those in need and suffering around the world.

This year, the funds I raise will help rebuild a water filtration system in Syria, helping provide safe, clean drinking water directly to the homes of up to 20,000 people.

Access to clean water is something many of us take for granted. For families in Syria, having safe water to drink, cook with and use every day can make a life-changing difference.

I’m running for every parent who has lost a child, and every child who has lost their parent.

I’m running to help restore something so basic, yet so essential — clean, safe water — and to bring hope, dignity and lasting support to communities who desperately need it.
