I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

Australia is a big country, and for those living in remote, rural and regional areas, access to immediate care isn’t a guarantee. For some communities, the nearest hospital is eight hours drive away.

This October, I’m taking on a month-long fitness challenge to help more people access the care they need. By going further, I hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS).

Every year, the RFDS reach more than 330,000 Australians with 24-hour emergency retrieval and primary healthcare services. That’s one person every two minutes!

Together, we can keep the Flying Doctor flying and continue their life-saving work. Please donate to my challenge today!

So far this year

Plus side of being in a Global community

Thursday 2nd Oct
Being a Kiwi ex-pat has some benefits- people tend to quote "Flight of the Conchords" at you (who honestly would ever get sick of that?!), start up the long running rivalry about the Pavlova, make sheep jokes, jandals, dairy, etc.
But I think today has topped off the NZ/Australia gap with the time difference!
Nothing like receiving a message from my brother at 5.36am in the morning. A subtle reminder to get in my km (see attached image). I ignored it for a bit, but then obliged- as I knew I would never live it down.

84km to go :)
