My target 100 kms

This is for women and girls everywhere....

I’ve signed up to take on 100km across the 16 Days of Activism for Safe. Everywhere. Always. in support of UN Women Australia.

Yes, for anyone who knows me, committing to 100km when I still maintain that I do not enjoy running is quite the choice 😂

But this is bigger than the kilometres.

Too many women and girls continue to experience violence, harassment, fear and control. Too often the conversation still focuses on what women should do to keep themselves safe, rather than what we all need to do to create a safer world.

I spend a lot of my life talking about safety, equality, culture and systems change about challenging what we normalise, using our voice, and the standard we are prepared to walk past.

So this is one small way of putting some action behind those words.

Over 16 days, I’ll run and walk 100km to help raise awareness and funds for a future where women and girls are safe at home, at work, online, in sport and everywhere in between.

Every donation, share, conversation and kilometre matters.

If you see me somewhere around kilometre 87 regretting every life choice that brought me here… encouragement will also be gratefully accepted 😂🧡

Women and girls deserve to be safe. Everywhere. Always.

Big thank you so far 🧡

Friday 9th Oct

A little thank you 🧡

I’ve only just started sharing my 100km Safe. Everywhere. Always. challenge, and already so many of you have donated, shared it, sent messages of support and even offered to clock up some kilometres alongside me.

Thank you.

Genuinely.

I know there are a million different causes, fundraisers and asks competing for people’s attention, so the fact that you’ve chosen to support this one means a lot.

Every donation is more than a number on a fundraising page. It’s another person saying that violence against women is not inevitable, that safety should never be something women have to earn, and that creating change is something we all have a role in.

On a personal level, your support is going to make those 100km feel a little less ridiculous 😂

I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who has already backed me.

Now I just have to do the running part… 🫠🧡

100km. 16 days. Safe. Everywhere. Always.

Thank you to my sponsors
