My Challenge is to Run 21 kilometres EVERY DAY FOR 10 DAYS IN 2024

bg my challenge

My challenge is uncomfortable for me because...

It pushes me out of my comfort zone, just like Nedd’s journey inspires us all to do. I'm stepping up to this challenge to not only grow personally but also to raise awareness and support for We Are Mobilise, helping people in Australia experiencing homelessness.

My Updates

Day 10 - Half Marathon 10/10

Tuesday 29th Oct
The finale! Huge thanks to all who donated, sent messages of encouragement and ran with me over these last 10 days. The body still feels good but I’m looking forward to a rest day! LESSSGO!!!!

Day 9 - Half Marathon 9/10

Monday 28th Oct
Early start to knock out a half marathon before work. The morning routine included about 15mins of procrastination. Took about 5km to actually start to enjoy the run, but once that started, the feeling was amazing. This has been a phenomenon experience! Thank you all for donating!

Day 8 - Half Marathon 8/10

Sunday 27th Oct
First 8km with Rosie. Switching off the brain telling me I have a head cold. Big 150km week!

Day 7 - Half Marathon 7/10

Saturday 26th Oct
14 km with Trevin followed by a quick 7km lap by myself fuelled by jellies. The support of people around me is getting me through this!

Day 6 - Half Marathon 6/10

Friday 25th Oct
Getting it done! ✅

Day 5 - Half Marathon 5/10

Thursday 24th Oct
Mentally that was very tough to get out the door and start. Body feels good though! Halfway there!! Lesssgo!!!

Day 4 - Half Marathon 4/10

Wednesday 23rd Oct
Motivation was low during the day for this one. Having the JP Morgan Corporate Challenge was both a blessing and a burden. It was great to get 5.6 Km done with lots of people but also challenging because the day became much longer. Cherry on top was seeing Rohan 500m from the finish line then running my remaining 5k with him.

Day 3 - Half Marathon 3/10

Tuesday 22nd Oct
Commute home from Chatswood with a bit of a detour to make up some miles!

Day 2 - Half Marathon 2/10

Monday 21st Oct
Early start this morning to get the job done before work.

Day 1 - Half Marathon 1/10

Sunday 20th Oct
Beautiful day out in Sydney this morning. Shared the road with Rosie and bagged 21.1 km before second breakfast! LESSSGO!!!
