Endspurt! 180 km down...almost there, if it wasn't for this horrible weather! Crazy hills? No problem. Can't stop, won't stop. 20 more. Walk in the park.

Chelsea Parkrun - done. Weather is improving and most importantly, no wind.

26 km down. Only 174 to go. LFG.

Thank you to everyone who has already donated, special shout out to my Parkrun crew. Thanks for your support!

Two days to go until run # 1 with my mate Ben who will run in the northern hemisphere on 01.10.25. LFG.

This October, I’m running 200 km to raise funds for people with autism facing mental health challenges.

I live in Chelsea, catch me at Bicentennial Park and around Patterson River.

This cause is close to my heart. Many individuals on the autism spectrum struggle in silence with mental health issues, often without the support they need. I want to help to change that — one step at a time.

If you can, please donate, share, or simply cheer me on. Every bit helps.

I'm also a longtime supporter of "Punks for Autism", go check them out, they have some amazing T-Shirts, Hoodies etc. featuring designers from all over the world. www.punksforautism.com

Please also visit and support the Lachlan McLaren foundation www.lachlanmclarenfoundation.org

💙 Thank you for your support.
