Running for Kayla

My target 42 kms

I will be running the Melbourne Marathon in memory of my partner, Kayla. We shared a goal of running a half marathon together, so I've decided to run a full — a half for each of us. To honour her, I am raising funds for the Heart Foundation to support vital research, raise awareness, and help prevent others from losing someone too soon.

Heart disease remains Australia’s biggest killer, claiming 48 lives every day. Your donation will help the Heart Foundation to transform Australia’s heart health by:

  • Funding life-changing heart research

  • Supporting health professionals working to prevent, diagnose and treat heart disease

  • Providing heart-healthy programs and resources for everyday Australians.

Please make a donation today, click the donate button. Every donation, big or small makes a difference and is deeply appreciated.

All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you’ll get a receipt by email as soon as you make your donation.

Thank you for your support.
