I spoke to Catherine last week before leaving for my son's graduation from Duke (yes, I'm a proud mama!) Catherine said she had a nice but quiet Mother's Day with her husband. Jane was away at school so she didn't get to spend time with her but had just seen her while Jane had a short break. Catherine said she has been training and receiving a lot of massage therapy and that the muscle tear is healing. She hopes to be back in the U.S. soon for training as well.
In news about the film, donations have not been coming in as well as hoped so we still have not been able to move ahead with the next step of logging all the footage we've shot, transcribing it all and getting translation for Swahili and Kikuyu dialogue. The economy has not helped but we are still hoping people will come forward and make whatever contribution they can at our website: www.wincatherine.com
We are also still looking for corporate sponsors so if you know of an organization that may be able to help, please let us know! Every little bit counts!
My journey to tell the story of how World Champion Kenyan marathon runner Catherine Ndereba has inspired many through her running and how her faith has guided her. This story will explore the many ways she stands as a role model for Kenyan women and girls and how she inspires others to pursue their education and dreams and not be bound by the traditional role women have been bound to in Kenya. Check back often as I'm sure the scope of this will change and evolve through time.
