Priya's Ultra-Marathon for Isha
Support me as I run for Isha Vidhya!
“Run often and long, but never outrun your joy of running.” Julie Isphording
While running gives me immense joy and fulfillment, one of the few things that make me happier is the smile on the faces of little rural children at Isha Vidhya School in India. This is made even more special by the fact that many of them being the first generation in their family to go to school! The entire credit to this happiness goes to your generous support to my previous missions like the Everest Base Camp trek, 50kms Bangalore UltraMarathon and the Mumbai Full Marathon.
The time has come to begin yet another challenge. With your support, for the very first time, I hope to successfully finish an UltraMarathon of 100kms on the Nilgiri Mountains in Southern India on December 22, 2013.
I look forward to your generous contribution to raise $15 for every kilometer of the 100 KM race. Every single dollar of donations from you shall go towards teaching rural children at Isha Vidhya. Together, we can send as many as ten children to school for one full year. Needless to say, this shall also strengthen my resolve on every step and every kilometer of the arduous Nilgiri mountain trail.
As a gesture of my heartfelt appreciation, I promise to mark your names on a ‘gratitude poster’ and run with it across the finish line with happiness in my heart.
The next few months are going to be intense training of my body and mind. Your contributions to Isha Vidhya will be a great encouragement for me.
Looking forward to your support.
Run this UltraMarathon with me for Isha Vidhya!
Please note- Like all my earlier adventures, I shall personally bear the full costs of participating in this race. This ensures that all your contributions go to the children who need them most.
