I'm now a Pink Hero

Did you know that every day 58 people in Australia are diagnosed with breast cancer and 9 people will sadly lose their lives to this disease?  

I've decided to Give it Up for Breast Cancer.

I will be going without alcohol and walking 58km for the month of October, while raising funds for world-class breast cancer research to help National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) towards their vision of Zero Deaths from breast cancer.

Please support me and my pledge to save lives and make a difference.

Every donation, big or small, will get me closer to reaching my goal. Together, we can stop deaths from breast cancer.

The finish line

Saturday 1st Nov
And that’s a wrap! 
I hit my 200km walking goal and stayed dry for the month of October to raise funds for the National Breast Cancer Foundation. I took this on in honour of those currently battling this disease, those recovering, and for those who have sadly lost their battle. This was a very minor challenge for me, in comparison. 
This disease is far too common!

Thanks to all who donated and supported me throughout the month, it really means a lot. My page is still active if anyone wants to make a last minute contribution, every little bit helps xxx

Take care and get your boobies checked! 

4 weeks done!

Wednesday 29th Oct
Today marks 4 weeks since I started the October Breast Cancer Awareness challenge. I walked 47.6kms last week which brings me to 170.6kms for the month, with 3 days to go until the end of the challenge. 
My ambitious target is 200kms for the month! Not sure how I’ll go getting 30kms in 3 work days but I’ll try!! 
The point of the kms is to acknowledge the 58 people diagnosed with breast cancer in Australia everyday.
I will check back in on the 31st with a final update, so if you’re in a position to make a small donation in these final days, id love your encouragement and support!! 
xoxo 

9 days to go!

Wednesday 22nd Oct
The month feels like it’s flying by and I’m actually loving how the walking part of this challenge has pushed me to move more given I have many long days at a computer for work. Daylight savings has helped too! 
123kms down and obviously still off the boozies! 
Thanks to everyone who has supported me thus far! Bloody legends xx 

Half way!

Wednesday 15th Oct
Week 2 is done and dusted. 
Thanks again to all who have donated, your support really is appreciated xx

So far, I’m 2 weeks without alcohol and my walking tally is now up to 81.5kms! 
I’ll be donating $1 for each km I walk this month and since I’ve already hit the current 58km target (for the 58 people diagnosed with breast cancer per day), my new goal is to hit 200kms for the month of Oc-sober, wish me luck! xox 

1 week down

Wednesday 8th Oct
Today marked the start of week 2 of my Oc-Sober National Breast Cancer Foundation fundraiser. 
1 week no alcohol (easy peasy) and 39.2km walked has put me in good stead for the monthly walking challenge (58km for the 58 people diagnosed with breast cancer daily)

Massive thanks to those who have donated so far, it means a lot as I do this for family, friends and all those having to battle the big C. 

Thank you to my Supporters
