Hallo lieve mensen,
“Surviving in the open ocean has always tested animals to their limit, but today they face a new additional treat. Plastic”, aldus David Attenborough. Misschien heb je het zelf ook gezien op Blue Planet II, maar dagelijks sterven vele dieren in de zee wegens rotzooi. De Plastic Soup Foundation ondersteunt o.a. innovaties en plastic urban mining om te voorkomen dat schildpadden zakjes voor kwallen aanzien.
Deze dappere meid gaat op 8 april 2018 de NN Marathon Rotterdam lopen en wil dit avontuur wijden aan de arme diertjes in zee. Ik zal daarom wekelijks updates geven over mijn training, met een sporadische Asian peace-sign-selfie ;). Ik hoop dat jullie me in mijn strijd financieel willen ondersteunen om het plastic uit het water te innoveren!
Willen jullie zien hoe hard ik dat plastic uit de oceaan kick? Volg me dan via instagram: celialepelaars
Bedankt voor jullie steun J!

Hi lovely people,
On April 8th, 2018 I’ll be running the NN Marathon in Rotterdam. Despite this already being a physical achievement, I would like to make it a contributing one as well for nature. More specifically, for the ocean. As you may have seen yourself, sea creatures pass away due to plastic in the oceans. As David Attenborough said in the BBC documentary Blue Planet 2 “Surviving in the open ocean has always tested animals to their limit, but today they face a new additional treat. Plastic”.
Therefore I would like to help. And I would like to ask you to help me by donating to the beautiful charity Plastic Soup Foundation. This in turn will motivate me as well to finish those 42.195 kilometers. Anything you can spare will be gratefully received and put to great use.
And for those who would like to follow my journey of training for the marathon, you can follow me on Instragram: @celialepelaars
Thanks everyone :)!
Celia
