Running Out of Patience with Domestic Violence
After months of little to no training, I shall be running, walking, or crawling (hopefully not) the Sydney Marathon.Why am I putting myself through this ordeal? Other than the fact that I am overconfident and have lost my mind, domestic violence is something that is very close to my heart, after a person who I care very deeply for, suffered it.
Domestic violence is more common than people realise.
After considerable consideration, I have chosen White Ribbon as the charity I want to risk the structural integrity of my knees for. Why is this? Because it focuses on preventing domestic violence towards women before it has happened.
White Ribbon believes in:
"Engaging men and boys to see this violence as their problem to fix, not women's problem to tolerate."
So, either knock me over with your car and save me from this; or have deep pockets and long arms and give some coin, as this is something which I, (and you), care about.
