The 7in7 Challenge for the Chaeli Campaign

Published on

Chaeli Mycroft – world renowned activist and speaker on inclusion and change advocating for persons with disabilities was on the Ryan O’Connor Breakfast Show this morning. She is about to undertake the 7in7 Challenge to raise funds for the Chaeli Campaign.

Team Beastie, comprising Chaeli Mycroft, Mark ‘Muddy’ Ferreira and Ivo Riva, will run 7 Ultra Marathons in 7 days from 3-9 June 2024, culminating with Comrades 2024. This year they have expanded the 7in7 Challenge to include everyone. We invite fellow Comrades Runners to raise funds through the Comrades For Kids Like Chaeli initiative.
