Simon's 80km Karkloof Race

Simon Tshabalala is requesting donations to prepare for a 80km race - a South African qualifier to represent South Africa in Spain in 2025. He is a die-hard. This is also the name he uses on WhatsApp. This man runs 100km races. These races involve running up mountains. It is mind-boggling. He is a legendary runner in the small community of runners that takes on these unthinkable challenges (See this article about him: https://www.iol.co.za/sport/tshabalala-holds-off-strong-challenge-to-clinch-maxirace-100km-34193971). He wants to prepare for a qualifier (https://www.karklooftrailrun.co.za/) in September that could enable him to represent South Africa in Spain next year. He is a security guard and has overcome incredible hardship to become a successful runner. At this point, he needs extra money to supplement his diet and just help him as he prepares for the 80km Karkloof run. I have known Simon for 20 years and know he will achieve his goal with some help. Picture credit for running image: Rory Scheffer
