Premmie Marathon Challenge 2026

I'm running 71km to celebrate my baby, Penelope.

Our 30 week young lady is turning 7 this October ❤️ Mum and Dad know first hand how any donation can help the current and future miracles and their families!

My Target

71KM

Every day in Australia, 71 babies are born prematurely.

This November, I'm taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge to give these babies the best chance at life.

The funds I raise will help Running for Premature Babies provide life-saving neonatal equipment for hospitals around Australia, giving premature and critically ill babies the chance to grow stronger and go home with their families.

If you're able to support me, I'd be incredibly grateful. Every donation helps fund the equipment and research that gives premature babies a better chance of survival and quality of life.

Thank you for supporting my challenge and helping Australia's tiniest babies. 💜
