Premmie Marathon Challenge 2025

Help us give premature babies a better chance of survival

This November Jarryd and I are taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge - walking/running/crawling a full 200km to raise funds for life-saving neonatal equipment that gives critically ill and premature babies a better chance of survival.

This cause couldn’t be closer to our hearts. Our own bubs, Ayla and Indie, surprised us by arriving at 34 weeks and spent over two weeks in special care before coming home. We’ll never forget the incredible support and equipment that helped them thrive, and now we want to give back.

Every kilometre we clock is for the tiny fighters who need it most. Your donation will help keep us motivated, while funding vital equipment for hospitals across Australia.

Donate here to cheer us on and help more premmie babies survive and thrive.

Or feel like a challenge yourself? Join the Premmie Marathon! Pick your distance, lace up, and walk (or run!) for the littlest feet.

Thanks for helping us go the distance - two tiny reasons are pushing us every step of the way!
