Melb Marathon
We are now just over 1 week out before we take on the Melbourne marathon on the 11th Oct for day 284.
We have been completing a minimum of 5km every single day in 2026 to raise money for premature babies to provide life saving equipment and vital research.
The prep into this marathon has been going beautifully and we are hoping to PB at this event for such a good cause.
Noah’s Daily 5km
In honour of our son Noah, who we sadly lost on December 7th at 22 weeks, I will be completing a 5km run, bike ride, or walk every day throughout the year.
My goal is to raise $10,000, with all funds going toward life-saving equipment and vital research to help give premature babies a better chance of survival and an improved quality of life.
Experiencing the heartbreak of losing our son has changed our lives forever. Through this challenge, my hope is to create something meaningful from our loss. If these efforts can help prevent even one family from enduring the same pain, then every kilometre will be worth it.
Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support. You're welcome to follow the journey on Strava (Brayden Flanigan) and Instagram (Noahs.Daily5km).
Thank you to my donors
