My Red Socks Run for Kidney Health

This October, I’m going to Red Socks Run as life depends on it.

By running, walking, or riding 60km I want to raise awareness of the 60hrs that people affected by kidney disease need to spend on dialysis each month.

Please donate to my page to raise funds for research into life-saving treatments, and provide support to the families of the 66 Australians that lose their life each day to kidney disease.

YOU can make a difference – Join me and help create a future where kidney health is a priority for all Australians.

My Updates

60km done

Monday 30th Oct
Very early in the gym to get the 3 remaining km done . 
So very happy to have run the promised kms. 
October 2023  will be a very special time not only for this first fundraiser but for Megan’s second kidney transplant from a deceased donor to whom I will be forever grateful and thankful for. Thank you everyone xxx 

50 km run 10 to go 4days left!!

Friday 27th Oct
I’ll get it done even if it is on the treadmill 🙁 10 km any way I can 

Thanks so much for all of the donations xxx

46km done - 14 to go and 6days left

Wednesday 25th Oct
Not a hard task you might say. Normally I would have smashed this out in 
2 runs but I am happily short of time opportunities now that my daughter is in hospital recovering from her second kidney transplant!!! Yes so very lucky to have received this opportunity as we wait anxiously for it to start doing its job. I don’t know how to thank everyone involved enough!!! ❤️🙏 so grateful for your donations. It means everything to me xxx 

Half way mark

Wednesday 18th Oct
31km done and half way through October so I’m confident I’ll finish 60km as long as there is no injury. 
Mount Lofty coming up for the  6 week challenge at my gym so training is going strong . 
Thankful for every donation. Kidney Health is a great cause helping many young children and their families going through the hardest time in their lives. 

Leg Day

Wednesday 11th Oct
Leg Day at the gym then 3km Red Sox Run minus the Red Sox - it’s a bit warm for them today . 

8km today including Torrens parkrun

Saturday 7th Oct
Great morning for a run even though I had  long tights and long Red Sox on! 
I have started a 6 week fitness challenge at my gym so my runs will be more often and shorter to make up the kms. 
Most of my time is sitting with my daughter at dialysis and she spends about 20 hours per week on life saving blood cleansing treatment, It’s hard, she feels very unwell and I am so grateful that she has had one transplant and may get another one day soon.  Kidney Health Australia appreciates every donation and so do we xxxx Thankyou ❤️❤️❤️

First Red Sox run

Sunday 1st Oct
My first Red Sox run for October was 10km loop of North Adelaide with the WRRN ladies. Alas Strava did not cooperate so I have no digital proof but it was a great start on a beautiful morning. 

One month to go - Red Socks Run

Saturday 2nd Sep
One month to go until the Red Socks virtual run for kidney health begins. 
I’m not getting in the necessary kms recently so this month is a test to see if I can achieve 60km per month. 
The average amount of hours on dialysis is 60 hours per person suffering with kidney failure and all of the symptoms that come with it. My daughter does more than that so I need to run a lot more!! 

Thank you to my Sponsors
