100ks for R U OK?

kms

My target 2000 kms

I'm fundraising for a great cause!

I have decided to take on this challenge to help R U OK? to spread their message and help prevent suicide.

About 8 people take their own lives in Australia every day.

For every death, it’s estimated another 30 people will attempt suicide.

89% of people report knowing somebody who has made an attempt.

I want to help change these numbers.

R U OK?’s vision is of a world where we are all connected and protected from suicide.

Their mission is to inspire everyone to meaningfully connect with the people around them and support anyone struggling with life.

By inspiring people to take the time to ask, “Are you OK?” and listen, we can help people who are struggling with life to feel connected long before they even think about suicide. 

Thank you so much for your support, together we will make a difference.

The comeback

Tuesday 24th Jan
I lost a lot of 2022 to injury in my foot then to a broken collarbone.     The return has been slow and hard, much like the 100km will be in June.      Only 4 months left to get myself there
