Make a difference
I work with organisations that support people living with type 1 diabetes. My current partners are JDRF, the Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre, and Rio Tinto Children’s Diabetes Centre. I volunteer my time and raise funds for them to do great work. I also provide individual and group coaching sessions, plus key note talks or presentations to motivate and inspire people living with type 1 and their families to their dreams.

Support Ten ultras in ten years.
Ten ultra-marathons, in ten years
I’m racing to show what people with diabetes can do.
Every $1 makes a difference. In 2013, I raised $20,000 running six marathons in six days in Australia's Simpson desert.
I won my age group in that race 🏆
When I finished I set a new, even bigger, goal to run ten more ultra marathons in ten years.
On 18 May 2024 the UTA100 in the Blue Mountains, Sydney will be the last of the ten in ten.
UTA100 is a challenging. A bit like living with type 1 it has highs and lows. The 100km trail finishes with a brutal last kilometre climb up the famous Furber steps (951 of them). I'll count every one to the finish line.
Living with diabetes makes a lot of things harder. I believe these daily challenges have made me fitter and more resilient for running races like these.
PLEASE DONATE NOW or share my story to show people what can be done with type 1. Every $10,000 raised makes a huge impact. Let’s see how far you can help me go this time.
Follow my pursuit of this goal on Instagram, or book a group talk or coaching session to make a difference. 💪🏼
