Bustamante Children's Hospital saves lives every single day. It is a gift to the world. The dedication of all the staff who make the hospital such an amazing, special and warm, safe haven for all 10,000 children treated there every year, from difficult and challenging births, wounds, injuries and diseases of all kinds, Bustamante sees it all, literally every day.
It's one special place.
Each year, money is raised for the hospital, through the amazing philanthropic work of Shaggy and his friends at the 'Shaggy Foundation', however this year it's our turn to step up and help....
Take one frustrated injured ultra marathon runner with a brother who's a mad cyclist and who happens to be coming to Jamaica on holiday in August and we came up with an open invitation, all welcome, non stop round Jamaica cycle ride, it's only 400 miles! Depending on hurricanes, we will set off east, and only stop for natural breaks or some food (max 20 mins for any 1 stop) until we circle back into Kingston from the west.
Remember that it's only through dreaming, uninhibited and free as a child, and then promising that your dream will not die in the fantasy world, but be driven by you to realisation that causes change in this world, and we owe it to every child on this planet to give them the best chance possible to become a future Usain, Asafa, Melaine, Shelly-Anne, Shaggy, Bob or Sean Paul.
