UTA100 (and my other races this year!)....... I'm Doing It In A Dress because...

There are so many things that prevent girls from accessing quality education and in many low-income countries, girls face unique challenges simply because they were born a girl. 

... 130 million girls around the world are out of school. Educating girls not only changes the lives of those girls, but also their families, communities and countries. A win-win-win-win.

So this year instead of just doing the 100km Ultra-Trail Australia Ultramarathon for "fun" - I'm doing it for a good cause. Help me meet my Target and I will run the Tarawerra 100mile Ultramarathon in a dress to say thanks (and raise some more money!)

Yep.... I'm putting on a school dress and running all of my trail races, including the 100km UTA through the Blue Mountains to raise awareness and raise funds for girls' education. Because when I put on a dress, I'll be helping girls in Sierra Leone and Uganda put on a school dress and take charge of their futures - All you have to do is donate some money!

Please give what you can, and help me change the world through girls' education!
