We're fundraising for The Run Beyond Project.
The Run Beyond Project empowers students by asking them to go beyond their comfort zone. These students aren't runners. They're high school students from a variety of circumstances who commit to undertaking this program in order to develop personal and social capabilities that see them not only get to the finish line of their Goal Race but thrive beyond this, personally and as contributing members to their communities.
Run Beyond has produced over 345 students so far, including 69 indigenous students, 38 students from refugee backgrounds, and 17 who have been in out-of-home care, as well as students impacted by numerous other factors such as exposure to discrimination and long-term parental unemployment.
We're participating in the Beyond Barriers Virtual Run and going beyond our limits to empower these students in need!

Amazing effort to hit 1000km solo, and loved the FB updates on supporting the cause and following along! Time for some rest now.

Thank you for being one of the hardest competitors in this competition to date, in the past three years including 2022 and 2023 when I accumulated the highest individual distance run over 22 days… Thanks for sharing part of your running data which shows you made up on a good amount of mileage especially on day 21 and 22, but as per documentation you were still on 967km at 2244 (1044pm) on day 22. In the remaining minutes to midnight (end of competition) you managed to make up the gap you were trailing (23km) then put an extra 100km totalling 1100km. So I had every right to respectfully ask the committee to review the run data, which they did so and I was informed of the findings. That effort was amazing! Huge congrats! I wish you all the best in your future endeavours.

G’day Steve! Congrats on your efforts in reaching and surpassing 1000km. Thanking so much for pacing and competing me so that I could be the first to surpass this milestone. Great effort in completing those extra 100km whilst I was racing at the Melbourne Marathon! Whatever you have said to me, positive or otherwise, has helped fuel me to BEYOND BORDERS of my running journey and I look forward to challenge the limits of my future running abilities.
Being able to touch the feet of another person to give them the joy of running is immense.
