Recently I completed the City2Surf and whilst running it was a welcome relief to get to a water station and drink a cup of cool clear water. But for many people around the world this simple thing would be a luxury.

So imagine if you had no clean water. Imagine walking hours to the nearest river to collect water for your family -- water that’s not even clean. Imagine giving that water to your kids.

So next I have entered the Wild Endurance 100kms which takes place over 36 hours (http://wildendurance.gofundraise.com.au/page/TheOldDog) to help raise funds for people that don't have clean water. My target is to get a million Followers on my blog www.68anda6pack.com and that they feel inspired to donate a dollar each (or more if they choose) to fund $1,000,000 to provide clean water for 50,000 people.

So whilst having to drink dirty water might seem unimaginable to us, it's a reality for 800 million people in developing countries.

After learning more about charity: water's work, we know we can make a difference in the global water crisis. We're supporting charity: water to help build clean water projects for people in need.

Please help us by donating on this page.

100% of the money we raise will go directly water project costs, funding long-lasting clean water solutions for people in need. When the projects are finished, charity: water will show us the exact communities we've helped using photos and GPS coordinates.

Please join us and help give clean water!
