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

bg my challenge

My challenge is uncomfortable for me because...

Ever since I have started university I have found it difficult to get into a regular fitness routine, this is going to push me to my limits! Watching Nedd over the past few weeks has been so inspiring and off the back of that I want to help raise awareness and support for Mobilse by doing this challenge. Homelessness is a growing issue here in Australia, by doing positive things like this we can help change that.Β
