…at first I wasn’t sure, I just knew I had to do it. I’ve never run a charity 5K, let alone something like this. But this isn’t just about raising money - though wild dogs have always been incredibly close to my heart. This is also about something deeply personal. I’m doing this for my own growth. Yes, I want to prove I can finish the race. But more than that, I want to prove to myself that I have the discipline and determination to go through everything that leads up to it: the training, the preparation, the nutrition, the setbacks - all of it. And I’m under no illusion that it’ll be easy. The training will be brutal. I’m still recovering from a knee injury, I don’t even own a road bike yet, and I’m in the middle of scaling two businesses - with more in the pipeline. This will be one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. So I’ll need all the support I can get. If you’re up for it, I’d love to have you join me on this journey to Ironman South Africa 2026.
