Larapinta for a Cure

Story

On the 26th July 2017 I will be putting the hiking boots back on and heading to Outback Australia to trek one of Australia's Best Long Distance Walks - the Larapinta Trail.

 

I'm taking on my 6th Adventure Challenge to raise money for the ground-breaking work the Cure Cancer Australia Foundation do. 

 

Since being diagnosed with cancer 6.5 years ago at the age of 26 I have made it my mission to play a part in the fight against cancer.  

 

The past six years have seen me tackle 9 days roughing it in the Papua New Guinea Jungle to complete the gruelling Kokoda Trail (Nov 12), reach over 4,000m on the Salcantay Trek to Machu Picchu (Jun 13) and despite being a non-runner complete the Sydney Half Marathon in 2hrs16 (Sep 14) before scaling the great heights of the highest freestanding mountain in the world - Mt Kilimanjaro at 5,895m (Oct 15). And most recently complete the New York Marathon in 4hrs46 (Nov 16). These five challenges have seen me personally raise over $46,000 to assist Cure Cancer in stamping out cancer, (and combined group fundraising has exceeded $700k). 

 

This time I am looking to raise $3,906 and take my new fundraising total to $50,000. It's an honour to be able to raise funds for such an incredible charity that has the single focus to find a cure for cancer - no less.

 

Thank you for your support in helping me reach my fundraising target and encouraging me to ramp up the training schedule!
