My personal Gold Coast Marathon Journey

This year I vouched to not run a marathon after backing up for 2 a year for the last couple of year. However I could not help myself and when approached by Can Too to get the office involved and raise funds for a cause close to me I could nont resist th etempation to hope back on the training bus.

This year I am training wih Can Too, a health promotion organisation that engages and inspires individuals and the community to achieve personal health, wellbeing and altruistic goals.

We have a crew of 4 completing the full marathon for the first time, so these runs have been aspiring watching the team reach the distance milesetones and the rest embarking on the hlaf marathon - many only run 5km in their lives.

In return, we are raising valuable funds that go towards the innovation in the prevention, care and control of cancer through Cure Cancer Australia and Cancer Council NSW.

Thank you for supporting me!
