Five Peaks Virtual Challenge

I'm taking Canteen's Five Peaks Virtual Challenge...

…a month-long challenge to cover 68km in March - the combined trail distance of Australia’s five highest peaks.

Every year, 23,000 young Australians face the mountain that is a cancer journey. Whether facing their own cancer diagnosis, or dealing with a loved one’s cancer journey, climbing that peak means feeling isolated, lost, exhausted, and confused.

It’s terrifying, and no one should face it alone. That’s why I’m challenging myself and I need your support!

Please sponsor me today and make every km count! All funds raised will help young people, facing their hardest climb, get free access to Canteen’s cancer counselling, peer support and specialised in-hospital care.

Thank you for your support!

Help me help others

Wednesday 26th Feb
Im not great at blog posts. Im not sure what people normally put here but here it goes. The last 12 months has been pretty rough for my family, my father developed an aggressive form of lymphoma, my fiances sister also devoloped lymphoma and my cousin passed from breast cancer which spread to her brain. Also, some time ago my Uncle battled and beat prostate cancer silently so as to not upset or stress the people he loves. 

Like most people, I don't know how to help or what to do. Cancer really is a different beast. I've decided to start here, though and im asking for people to help me achieve my goal of raising $1000 for this particular cancer charity. 

Im pretty introverted so i dont really have a lot of social connections but it is my hope that people will recognise a good cause that could help many people, donate towards it and share this with friends and family. 
Every dollar helps and is greatly appreciated.

Huge thank you to everyone for helping.
