12 Marathons in 12 Months for Cystic Fibrosis New Zealand

$18,315 of $25,000 goal
Given by 224 generous donors in around 12 months

Running 12 marathons in 12 months to raise $25,000 for Cystic Fibrosis New Zealand – help me go the distance for those with CF!

I have cystic fibrosis (CF), a condition that impacts my lungs and limits my daily life in many ways—but it won’t stop me from achieving this. This year, I’ve set myself an enormous challenge: running 12 marathons in 12 months. This goal isn’t just about pushing my limits; it's about raising awareness and crucial funds for Cystic Fibrosis New Zealand (CFNZ).

CFNZ provides life-changing support for those of us with CF and our families. Their mission is to improve lives and increase the life expectancy for people with CF in New Zealand. I’m aiming to raise $25,000 to help them expand their reach and make a difference for those of us facing this battle every day.

Every marathon I complete will represent the resilience and determination it takes to live with CF, and with each step, I’ll be running for those who can’t.

Your support can make a real impact. Please donate today and be part of this journey toward a brighter future for everyone with cystic fibrosis

Together, we can go the distance. Thank you for being a part of this journey!

Long time no update!  9 November 2025

11 marathons completed for Cystic Fibrosis New Zealand, one marathon 2 go.

This year has been a crazy journey, learning a lot about my body, running, balance, and how amazing humans are.

The support I have received this year has been truly immense and one of the key reasons that have helped to make running 42.2km each month that little bit more comfortable. Running for CFNZ is as strong of a purpose I have needed to dig as deep as I have needed to month after month to help fundraise as much money for them as possible. To give back to a group that have helped many throughout NZ impacted by CF.

December 14 marks the date for the last marathon down at the Auckland Domain, I would love for you to be there, come down and make some noise!

Thank you,

BPS
