About this campaign

If you’re wondering who signs up for Run for Rangers three years in a row, it’s either someone incredibly passionate… or someone who’s lost the plot.
In Gordy’s case? Both.

He’s back again because missing this event would feel like skipping Christmas, your own birthday, and the Salomon end-of-season sale all at the same time. After running with the rangers and seeing what they deal with daily, he figured: “Yup… this level of pain is worth repeating.”

By day, Gordy is a Discovery Financial Advisor.
By night, he’s a father, husband, philanthropist, and Durbanite with commitment issues around comfort. His “healthy midlife crisis” at 40 has been going on for more than a decade — long enough to be considered a permanent lifestyle.

Since 2013, he’s clocked over 10,000 km doing everything except resting — running, cycling, hiking, paddling, hand-cycling, swimming — and somehow raising millions for charity in the process. When Gordy suffers, good things happen for other people.

This year, the madness continues.

Because if the rhinos are fighting for survival… so is Gordy’s chafe cream.

So here he is again — ignoring his age, ignoring common sense, and once again choosing sweat, suffering, and questionable life choices for an incredible cause.

If Gordy can do THIS… you can definitely donate. These funds go directly to Project Rhino toward equipping rangers with the training, technology, and resources they need to protect our natural heritage.

His legs can only do so much.
