Sydney Trip

Today is Day 1! ❄️🏃

6°C not that appealing. But I did.
It turned into a beautiful morning for my regular parkrun, and I added another 5 km afterwards to start Fred's Big Run with a bang! 💥
The real challenge starts now. This week I'll be flying to Sydney for work, and fitting in extra kilometres around a busy schedule won't be easy. But that's exactly why I signed up.
🎯 My goal is at least 25 km every week throughout August.
If you'd like to be part of the journey, I'd love your
support. You can:
🚶
Join me for a walk or a run anytime.
❤️
Donate to help restore sight through the Fred Hollows Foundation.
👟
Or, even better, join the challenge yourself!
Every km counts, and everything is a little easier (and more fun) when people do it together 💙
My Why

Partly, it's about doing something for myself - challenging myself to get moving in winter. But mainly, it's about doing something meaningful for others.
I've always admired the work of the Fred Hollows Foundation, but until now I hadn't actually done anything to support it. My sister is an ophthalmologist, and over the years I've listened to so many stories about people having their sight restored. She often says that giving someone back their vision is like giving them their life back. It really is a miracle.
So I decided it was time to stop admiring from the sidelines and do something.
If you'd like to support my fundraising, I'd be incredibly grateful. And if you'd like to join my team and run or walk with me, I'd love that even more - just let me know and I'll send you an invitation.
I genuinely believe that when people come together around a shared purpose, we create stronger communities and become better versions of ourselves.
A little deep, perhaps... but I simply want to contribute to something that makes a real difference. 💙
I’m stepping up to restore sight!
I’m taking on Fred’s Big Run this August to STEP UP TO RESTORE SIGHT! My goal is to raise funds for The Fred Hollows Foundation to continue the legacy of an Australian legend, Fred Hollows. Because right now, 9 out of 10 people who are blind don’t need to be... And an operation that costs as little as $25 can help restore sight to someone who is needlessly blind, and change their life forever! Please make a donation and support my challenge to give the gift of sight. Fred Hollows’ dream was to live in a world where no one was needlessly blind, please sponsor my challenge and let’s honour his memory together. Thank you for your support.My Top Donors
