Heartbreak to Hope Walk

My Activity Tracking

kms

My target 100 kms

Support my walk for kids facing cancer.

Every month in Australia, 88 children are diagnosed with cancer. 

For those families, their lives are changed forever. Cancer puts families under enormous pressure. It can feel like it’s impossible to hold it together.

This June, I am taking part in the Heartbreak to Hope Walk to raise funds for Redkite to provide emotional, financial and practical support and care to families facing childhood cancer.

Please sponsor me by making a donation to support my walk. 

Together, we can show these children and their families that they don't have to face cancer alone and support them as they face the toughest time of their lives.

Thank you.

Harder than I thought

Sunday 2nd Jun
Look, I have had the best intentions signing up for this 100kms… I thought to myself this will be semi-achievable but with a job that has me placed majority of the time at a desk paired with my absolute hatred for cardio this task is proving to be more difficult than first thought.

First day got me to 3kms, today, making an actual conscious effort to get my steps up. Pre-rewarding myself with HOT cinnamon donuts prior to my walk seemed to help my lazy butt get going…. Day 2…going slowly but surely…. Appreciate the support from my friends $225 so far…bit more to go but hoping to absolutely smash my goal 💪 

Cardio is not my forte

Monday 27th May
I am definitely not one to opt-in for cardio related activities. I thought I’d rip the bandaid off & strut my stuff for a great cause by raising funds for people who deserve it most. 

Cancer is a horrible C word that brings so much pain to so many families in so many ways. I have personally lost very close loved ones & been alongside my loved ones during their Cancer journeys. 

Childhood cancer, however, adds a whole additional layer of heartbreak as children as so pure & innocent. Children deserve nothing but the best in life. As a Mother, I cannot even begin to imagine the heartbreak that a family who is faced with a Childhood Cancer diagnosis may be experiencing. Anything I can do to support these impacted families will bring absolute joy to my heart. 

Please join me in supporting some truly inspiring humans who are facing some huge challenges, help bring a smile to their dial with some financial support to those in need. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
