I just wanted to share with you all someone who has not only taken on supporting Rivers Gift at full force but has also taken control of his health in the process! It is my pleasure to introduce you to Glen Wilkins. The first photo is late last year, his weight at 100kg, prior to joining our SOS (Stamp Out SIDS) running team. The second photo is after a run with his beautiful children, Chelsea and Josh around mid April 2014 before his first distance run, the 14km at The Great Ocean Road marathon, weighing in around 85kg. The third is the completion of his first half marathon at the end of July 2014, weight now at 76kg. His aim is to add a fourth to this in October 2014 - his first full marathon at Melbourne Marathon. Glen you are an inspiration to the team and we are all so proud of you, as we know your lovely wife Ainsley is too. Glens story is one of many other stories that we are proud to be a part of, as the entire Rivers Gift Run to SOS team have tackled distances they never thought possible, beaten their PBs, got fit, lost weight, made lifelong friends and raised thousands of dollars for SIDS research. We are incredibly thankful to you all and cant wait to see you all cross that finish line with your hand on your heart, knowing you have achieved so much for all those babies lost too soon.
