Description
Belinda Seaman spied a Facebook advertisement for the inaugural 2017 Run Against Violence Virtual Team Challenge, bounced the idea around her running group and days later had two teams of 10 ready to participate.
“We put some articles in the local paper and contacted the radio station to let people know what we were doing.
As a result of that, I had friends that I had known for years, stop and chat and tell me their stories.
These were people that you never would have guessed in a million years that they had been through what they had been through.”
Within a short time, Belinda’s love for running had shattered the silence in her South Australian community.
