Heavy Breather's take on Mental Health - Updates

Heavy breathers Update

7 September 2023

Holy hecker!!! Look at the time! We're only a few days out from the big day and the boys are absolutely fizzing. The support is felt with each step, with the total money raised now up to $80,000 and counting…

With this being the final post before the run itself we would once again like to thank YOU. That is anyone reading this post, anyone who has pushed us to go out for one more training run, anyone who has listened to us whine about broken bodies, and anyone who has been with us through any step of the 6570km total that we have run in the buildup. We would like to note that the total has come at a bit of a cost as very sadly three group members have succumbed to major injuries leaving them unable to be at the starting line on Sunday, but watch this space because their journey is not over yet!

With that being said we’re excited to be out there representing what’s important, and that’s all those around us. We’re encouraging everyone not necessarily to run but to take a step, check on those you care about, and know that you have people out there who care about you. Get out there and ‘Spark that Chat’ because tomorrow can always be better, but that doesn’t mean it’s guaranteed.

Much love from all of us Heavybreathers!

Heavybreathers Update

28 July 2023

A quick update from us: The boys are continuing in their training with over 3,200kms logged as a group. Now only 45 days out from the big day we have everything to give and nothing to lose - energy levels are high, and there is no doubt from us that the training kilometres will get higher.

The Heavybreathers alongside the Murray family have been overwhelmed with the support we have received following the tragic passing of Thomas Murray. He was an amazing man, and an amazing brother to our George. We now have more reason than ever to give this everything we’ve got, and the support from everyone is being felt with every step. In light of this support the boys have decided to push the campaign even harder setting a new goal of $50,000 - we never thought we would be in this position, thankyou all so much!

The boys are excited for the month to come, so keep an eye on our socials for updates about some activities we have in the works…

Check in on your loved ones, mates, or even your postman - we're all human beings navigating our way through life and we simply can’t do it alone.

From the Heavybreathers to our supporters, this is for you guys, and this is for change - get out for a run, walk or something where you can and most importantly Spark That Chat.
