I ran for their lives!
On Saturday, I ran 50km to raise £50k to help protect persecuted animals.
It was a crucial challenge because at 7am, exactly the same time I started running to protect animals, the Devon & Somerset Staghounds held their first meet of the season.
When I finally crossed the finish line, after 7 hours and 11 minutes, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The rush of emotions was overwhelming. My body had taken some punishment, but I would recover, unlike the 1000s of animals that are still killed by hunts every year.
Please donate today, and help us finally consign hunting to the history books.
Thank you for your support
