My Red Socks Run for Kidney Health

This October, I’m showing up for every renal unit, every patient and moving towards a future without dialysis.  

There are over 15,000 Australians on dialysis, and that number is rising. That’s why urgent action is needed now - to slow the progression and ultimately stop it. 


Every dollar raised, every km logged, every step we take brings us closer to a future without dialysis.

Join me to honour the 60hrs a month someone spends on dialysis and together we can Move for them and Move for change!

Please donate to support a better future for people with kidney disease.

Half Way

Wednesday 15th Oct
Well, I have made it to halfway and have done more walking than I thought i would have, if I keep up this pace, I could even do 80, 90 or even crack 100km in a month. My feet and calf have been sore so doing more stretching and recovering hence a few days with little walking. But making up for it on other days.

First Week Done

Wednesday 8th Oct
Well i didn't think that i would have done over 20km of walking already but i have, so i am one third of the way though. Even though i currently feel good and able to move, i am typing this pre-treatment. Post treatment i never know how i am going to feel and barely doing any walking on those days. Make up for it the next day.

DGL - Dialysis Group Luncheon

Sunday 5th Oct
Well had our 4-6 week DGL, at Torrens Arms Hotel. I got a bus and got off at a stop were it said 15 mins walk away, well it was more like 30 mins for me. How ever many km that is, ( i estimated 5km),  I went and did further walking so ended up doing 10km for the day and i am spent after a a nice medium-well scotch fillet steak for lunch followed by a nice Pecan Pie.

Over did it

Friday 3rd Oct
Was feeling good so thought I would go for a bit longer. Well i did and did do 4km but over did it back started seizing up and could barely move passed out after.

Well first day done

Thursday 2nd Oct
As it says First day out of the way started slow only doing 2km, which is all i need to to for 30 days.
