Day 1: Let It Begin

This promotion of Running for Premmies came up on my socials at the end of September and definitely piqued my interest to get around. 

What a great first day it has been with balancing walking the dog, walk with the wife and a few runs in between. Today has been such a great day that makes me feel so happy for supporting such a cause. 

Total distance (Walk+Run) = 10.26km/71km

Help us give premature babies a better chance of survival

Running for Premature Babies was founded in memory of baby triplets Henry, Jasper and Evan who were unable to overcome their prematurity.

We are proud that Henry, Jasper and Evan's legacy is saving the lives of hundreds of premature babies and are grateful for your support.

This challenge popped up in September, and it was a challenge I could get around, in support for two very close friends.

By supporting me you'll be raising funds to buy life-saving equipment and fund groundbreaking research that give critically ill and premature babies a better chance of survival. No donation is too small and all donations are greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
