Taking part
131km in May is a free walking challenge for everyone.
131km in May is a virtual challenge where people across Australia come together to walk throughout the month of May — all to support stroke prevention, awareness, and recovery.
Walk 131km, 65km, or choose a distance that suits you.
Every kilometre is for the 131 Australians who experience a stroke every single day.
Join us and show survivors of stroke, families, and carers that they’re not alone — and that together, we can create a future with fewer strokes.
Sign up as an individual, start a team, or register your workplace.
Every step makes a difference.

Choose your distance — 131km for the 131 Australians who have a stroke each day, or 65km if you’d prefer to take it at your own pace.
Get moving
Walk throughout May — on your own, with friends, family, or your furry companion.
You can take part outdoors, on the treadmill, or wherever suits you best.
Or gather a team and take on the challenge together — every step makes a difference.
Fundraise and inspire
Share your challenge and ask for support from your friends, family, and colleagues.
Every dollar you raise helps prevent stroke, save lives and enhance recovery through awareness, education, and recovery programs across Australia.
Every kilometre tells a story
Lisa’s journey is a reminder of why this challenge means so much.
After experiencing a stroke at 39, she found strength in the support she received through StrokeLine—and set out to give back by taking on 65km in 2025.
Each kilometre became a tribute to those affected by stroke, and even when the walk got tough, reaching her goal filled Lisa with pride.
Lisa's story shows that anyone can take part in a way that suits them.
Join the challenge—just like Lisa—and be part of a community that lifts each other up while making a real impact.
