My Story

27 Sep 2024

This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.

  • 18 October Lake Burrawan + new fire trail
    18 Oct 2024

    21 km today through the Lake Innes Reserve along the Boundary F/T and home again via Crestwood Drive.

    Discovered a fire trail I hadn’t been on before right down on the black soil, melaleuca wetlands that provided a beautiful environment and a hard slog for about 2km.

    Loving the challenge. Just need now to crack the $1000 barrier in donations. Thank you to all of the donors. We have been so lucky in our family having two cancer survivors!

    My heart goes out to the “556 Australian families (who) have heard the heart-breaking words "your child has cancer."

    We've lost 123 children to this terrible disease.

    These families deserve more effective treatments and better outcomes for their kids…” THIS year‼️😥

  • Heartbreak Hill ✅
    17 Oct 2024

    My Garmin watch battery gave out about 8km into the ride today.

    I had my first go at Heartbreak Hill in Matthew Flinders Drive for the first time in quite a while. The short ride helped me to make it up w/o stopping‼️💪🏽
