Story

Hi friends! 

 I’v got some exciting news!! and brace yourselves because it has nothing to do with sourodugh 😂 On Sunday, October 15th (yep- really soon!!) I'm diving headfirst into my very first half marathon, the Nike Melbourne Marathon. It's a massive 21.1km run, and my wild dream is to cross the finish line in less than 2.5 hours 🤸🏼‍♀️

Now, let's get real for a moment—I've never taken on a run of this magnitude before.. So, picture me: a bundle of excitement and so many nerves all rolled into one.

But here's the kicker: I plan to conquer these jitters by championing a cause that's super close to my heart—animal protection! 

And here's the kicker's kicker: The day before my half marathon gig, I'll be wrapping up my training with Wildlife Victoria, an incredible non-profit organisation. They'll dub me an official volunteer, giving me the power to make a difference in the lives of our furry, feathered, and finned friends right here in Victoria.


So, when I lace up those running shoes on the big race day, I'll have all that critter-loving knowledge fresh in my noggin, and I'll be sprinting with thoughts of those adorable animals that we can help leading the way 🦆

Wildlife Victorias mission statement: Our mission is to help and protect wildlife through our rescue, education, and advocacy activities. We respond to community reports of distressed wildlife and facilitate the care needed. We promote community knowledge and care of wildlife and advocate for the protection and welfare of wildlife🐨


If you find yourself connecting with this mission statement and can appreciate the upcoming 2.5-hour endurance test I'm diving into, you have the power to be a real superhero by tossing in some cash on my fundraising page. Donations processed through this platform are rock-solid secure, and they'll go directly to Wildlife Victoria (link in bio to donate) 💰 


Big thanks for having my (and the animals) back!
