Day 6 – We're really hitting our stride! 💪

Today, we strutted through 6.6kms under absolutely stellar weather – sunny enough to keep spirits high but not so hot that we melted into a puddle (lucky us, right?). 🌞 This challenge is starting to feel like the Olympic Games... except it's just us, a good playlist, and a whole lot of determination to smash this goal! Thanks to everyone cheering us on – your support keeps us walking (and occasionally skipping) our way to 100K. Here’s to more kilometers, more milestones, and maybe fewer blisters (fingers crossed)! 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️

Day 3: Stepping Closer to 100k!

🎉 Another great day for our 100k Your Way team fundraiser! Today, we covered 7.43km, bringing our total distance to 40.2km so far. 🚶‍♀️💪 We’re making steady progress toward our 200km goal and couldn’t be more excited about the journey ahead! Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far – whether it’s a donation, a cheer, or sharing our cause, every bit of encouragement helps us push forward. 💙 Let’s keep the momentum going! Stay tuned for more updates as we continue walking our way to 100k. 👉 If you’d like to support our fundraiser, please consider donating or sharing our page. Together, we can make a difference!

Day 2!

Day 2 of our fundraising walk is done! We braved a super rainy day and walked 3.13km. I'm pretty sure my shoes now have their own ecosystem, but it was totally worth it. Thanks to everyone who's donated so far—you're the reason we keep going, even when our socks are soggy!

Day 1 of 100k Your Way - The Journey Begins!

The 100K Your Way fundraiser has officially begun! We're so excited to start this journey towards our 100km goal. What better way to start than with a walk? Pop and I laced up our shoes and put in 9.62km for Day 1! It felt great to get moving for this important cause. We'll be sharing updates along the way. Thanks for your support!

We Reached Our First Goal!!

We're doing 100K, our way!

Join me in my journey for the 100k Your Way challenge this April as I walk 100km alongside my Pop, who is totally blind due to Retinitis Pigmentosa. This genetic condition affects the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, leading to a gradual loss of vision. People like my Pop experience difficulties with night vision and peripheral sight, which can greatly impact their daily lives.

By supporting this fundraiser for Vision Australia, you're helping individuals with low vision retain their independence within the community. The funds raised will go towards essential services, including mobility training, assistive technology, and resources that empower those with vision impairments to navigate their environment confidently. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of many who face similar challenges as my Pop.

You can join us in supporting this important cause by sponsoring our 100K Your Way challenge and clicking the DONATE button.

Your contribution and encouragement to our team, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference to many lives.  

Thank you for your support. Let's make a positive impact together!
