Prevent Stroke. Savel Lives. Enhance Recovery
I’m making a difference by fundraising for Stroke Foundation to help prevent stroke, save lives and enhance recovery for survivors of stroke.
In June, I’ll be taking on my biggest challenge yet — running for 58 hours straight in honour of my mum, who we lost to stroke. This year she would have turned 60, and I wanted to mark the milestone in a way that truly reflects her strength and the impact stroke has had on our family.
Over 58 hours, I’ll aim to complete as many kilometres as possible. There will be breaks to refuel and short naps along the way, but the goal is simple — keep moving, keep pushing, and raise as much awareness and funding as possible to help prevent stroke, save lives and support survivors in their recovery.
Last year, I completed 58 half marathons in 58 days and together we raised over $30,000. This year, I’m aiming to go even bigger.
Stroke changes lives in an instant. Every donation, no matter the size, helps fund vital research, prevention programs and support services for stroke survivors and their families.
Let’s do this again — and go even further.
In the next 11 minutes, someone, somewhere in Australia is going to have a stroke.
Stroke is one of Australia's biggest killers and doesn't discriminate; it affects anyone, anytime. It claims more lives than breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men. And incredibly, around 600 Australian children experience stroke each year.
By supporting me, you'll be contributing to sustaining vital programs and resources that Stroke Foundation provides, including:
💙 Preventing Stroke:
- StrokeSafe Talks
- Australia's Biggest Blood Pressure Check
- Information Resources
💙 Saving Lives:
- F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) Signs of Stroke Awareness
- Living Guidelines for Stroke Management
- InformMe Website for Health Professionals
💙 Enhancing Recovery:
- StrokeLine
- My Stroke Journey
- EnableMe Website for Survivors of Stroke
Your support goes beyond just a donation; it's a lifeline for individuals at risk of stroke and survivors of stroke.
Thank you for supporting me. Together we can change the state of stroke in Australia for generations to come.
Thank you to my Sponsors

Good work, Jack. If you ever need help, please pray, God is with you and you'll see your mum again. 'Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted.' - Matthew 5:4 ‘God will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.' Revelation 21:4

You're an inspiration Jack - once again another year of making a difference! Great work.
Some people let tragedy define them. Others use it to create change. To honour your mum through 58 hours of running whilst raising funds for those affected by stroke is a remarkable act of love, resilience and generosity. Her legacy lives on not only through your purpose, but through every life your incredible journey has touched (and will continue to touch)! In turning loss into hope for others, you've created something truly meaningful❤️
