Te Araroa Heart Walk

$450 of $10,000 goal
Given by 7 generous donors in around 3 months

A walk to challenge physically and mentally and to raise funds to support community based organisations

Nationwide

A mate and I are off from the very southern tip of NZ to the furthest northern reach.

Bluff to Cape Reinga! Te Araroa (the Long Walk)

Equipped and ready to go, we head out late Feb and seek support for a cause dear to my heart.

Be generous.

I wanted to ask for a dollar step. Over a 3000km that will soon add up.

All in the name of Heart Kids NZ and Ronald Macdonald House, both of whom offered amazing support during my daughter's dodgy ticker days.

Thanks heaps.

Use of funds

To support my endeavour and to fund charity organisations

Day One.  19 February 2021

Wind!

Apparently wind comes in two kinds. That provided by nature and the created by barrelling truck and trailer units.

Approx 34km. 8:40am-5pm.

Bluff to Invercargill.

That means about 1% ticked off.

A couple of toes aren't impressed, both feet are not sure if they will ever feel comfortable again and every inch of me is aware I'm no longer the youngest man out there walking.

Feeling positive so far.

Counting down from 3000km...
