My Story

6 Oct 2022

This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 600 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.

Digging In – My Great Cycle Challenge Journey So Far 🚴‍♂️

14 Oct 2025

Each year, I take on two major fundraisers that push my body and mind to their limits – the Kokoda Challenge and the Great Cycle Challenge. Both hold a special place in my heart because they remind me what’s possible when purpose meets persistence.

To be honest, I’ve never really thought of this ride as being a challenge… until this year.

Two years ago, I faced a rough run with injuries and some shocking weather that made it tough to stay consistent on the bike. That’s when I decided to invest in my Wahoo indoor trainer – no more excuses about rain, wind, or traffic. It’s been a game changer, helping me stay committed and accountable.

But this year feels different. I’m about halfway through the month, and while I’m behind where I’d like to be with the riding, I’m absolutely stoked with the fundraising side. The generosity of people around me has been unreal – I’m well on track to reach my target thanks to all the support.

The hardest part hasn’t been the distance – it’s been the balance. Like many of us, I’m juggling work, family, community commitments, and everything else life throws my way. Trying to give my all without tipping into physical or mental burnout is a challenge in itself.

Then I stop and think about the kids we’re riding for. They don’t get to choose their battle. They don’t get to hit pause, take a break, or skip a hard day. They face their fight head-on, every single day, often for years.

And that’s when it hits me — I’m only pushing through for a month. I can dig in. I can turn my mountains into molehills and keep pedalling. Because every kilometre counts, every dollar helps, and every small effort adds up to something much bigger than myself.

So, here’s to the second half of the challenge — the tough rides, the late nights, the early mornings, and the thought that keeps me going: if those kids can keep fighting, so can I. 💛
