Good morning everybody. Apologies in advance for the personal thread but hey! It's all for charidee!
The rhino never goes deep into the annual NSC WHC competition. In truth, it probably doesn't have much of a claim, as it will let itself get picked off by random humans. However, with the world's total rhino stock at no more than 30,000 and poaching running at over a thousand a year, you don't have to be a mathematician to work out that time is running out for these noble beasts.
I shall be running the Brighton Marathon this April in support of Save The Rhino International. It's my first marathon and I shall be donning the iconic rhino costume to make it that little bit harder. Following a 16 mile training run this morning I am terrified. I ache all over and can't imagine for the life of me where the extra ten miles are going to come from.
None of you know me and therefore have no real reason to donate. Nor do I expect a single one of you to do so. However, I thought I'd ask, just in case it makes a difference to you that the rhino you see on the day has the heart of a seagull. Even if you can't donate but see me on the day, give me an encouraging shout of Seagulls or Albion.
I can't seem to post a link on my iPad without crashing Safari but this is the page to go to for donations...

And while I'm at it, here's a daft promo film I made last year for other fundraising shenanigans...
Thank you for your time.
