Hey guys,
Over the last few years, I have undergone a number of different fitness challenges to raise awareness around sudden loss and bereavement. As some of you know this is extremely special and close to my heart.
On Friday, September 20 at 9am I will attempt a Concept2 10km Row, Concept2 10km Ski, Concept2 20km Bike and a 10km road run every 4 hours for 24 HOURS. That’s correct I am planning on working continuously for 24 hours.
My aim is to finish all 4 components in a 4-hour time period and repeat this 6 times finishing the challenge at 9am on Saturday, September 21
- That’s 300km covered in 24 hours.
I’m doing this to raise money for the charity Hope Bereavement Care (Hope) who offer support to people who are dealing with a sudden loss.
· My goal is to raise $15,000.
I will complete my challenge from BeFit Studio, New South Head Road, Double Bay. I’d would love as many people as possible to get involved. Book a spot in one of the Saturday classes or jump in and join me for all or part of the row, ski, ride or run!
· I’ll start at 9 am on September 20 and hope to finish by 9am on Saturday 21
Come along at any time.
As well as raising money, I also want to raise awareness about the impact of sudden loss and ensure more people understand that support is available and know how to access it.
Hope is a charity very close to my heart; 31st August 2024 will mark 14 years since we suddenly and tragically lost my Dad in a plane crash. It was a huge shock to our family, friends and anyone who knew him. Not a day goes by where I don't think about him and how much he's missed in all our lives. He was a huge role model to me and my sisters, and I try to instil his values in my kids.
I have always wanted to organise a charity event to raise money and awareness about sudden loss and bereavement and this feels like a great way to do that! I hope that you can support me in whatever way you can – with a donation or support on the day.
