This December 2025, I will be attempting a 160km Border Run. It's the toughest run of my life, but I am doing it for those who can't run, can't speak, and can't ask for help.
At Empathy Unlimited, more than 440 rescued animals - dogs, cats, donkeys, rabbits, ducks, and any and every soul who needed a shot at a new life - live with dignity, care, and love.
They are abandoned, injured, or disabled community animals who have nowhere else to go. Here they get the medical treatment, rehabilitation, and sanctuary they deserve - but keeping them safe is a constant battle of resources.
I am dedicating my run to raise funds so that, no animal at Empathy Unlimited goes without food, treatment, or shelter.
Your donation will directly support:
Every step I take will be for them. Every contribution you make will help us move forward together.
For animals. For empathy.
