Description:

Complete your race anytime in 2020. Australia continues to be in the grips of a nationwide bushfire emergency and we want to help. More than 50 fires are still burning. People, and animals, are losing their homes and their lives. At least 33 people have been killed, including four firefighters, and millions have animals have been killed. It’s devastating! We’ve created the Racing for our Friends Down Under 1M 5K 10K 13.1 26.2 to help raise funds for both the people and animals of Australia. We’ve created these unique wooden medals that are in the shape of the country of Australia and feature some of its beautiful wildlife.
The majority of proceeds will be donated to two charities. We will be donating 15% of each registration to GIVIT, an amazing organization in Australia that is helping provide the essential items needed to assist bushfire-affected communities in rebuilding their lives. We will also be giving another 15% of each registration to the World Wildlife Fund, who is helping with the bushfire emergency by helping to save wildlife and to restore the lost forests once the fires have cleared.
