64km for Lifeline

My target 64 kms

I'm training for a 64km ultra marathon and raising funds for Lifeline, who provide 24/7 crisis support for anyone struggling with thoughts of suicide or mental health challenges.

I got into running after losing a friend and workmate to suicide. Running became my way of processing grief and staying connected to life, a process and habit that's lasted years. Now I want to use it to support others in their darkest moments.

Every call to Lifeline costs about $40 to answer. Your donation helps ensure someone in crisis can reach a trained counsellor when they need it most.
