21.1km for TimeOut

This year, I’m running the Auckland Half Marathon on 1 November 2026 to raise money for TimeOut Charity.

Every year, thousands of New Zealanders are living with an incurable illness. TimeOut gives these people and their families the opportunity to take a break from everyday life and spend quality time together away from home. They connect families with generous holiday homeowners who donate stays in their homes, giving families the chance to rest, reconnect and simply enjoy time together.

TimeOut is a cause that is particularly close to my heart because of my Aunty Kylie and Uncle Skip (Kent), who have always been two of my biggest inspirations.

Kylie works for TimeOut, so I’ve been lucky enough to hear about the incredible impact the charity has on Kiwi families during some of the most difficult and vulnerable times in their lives. Her husband, Kent has also taken part in plenty of running events over the years, always reminding me to challenge myself and enjoy the thrill of racing. Mum says I must’ve inherited his racing genes!

I’m hoping to raise as much as I can for TimeOut through your donations, my training and my determination on race day.

Every donation, big or small, will help me get one step closer to my goal and, more importantly, help TimeOut give families the chance to make memories together.

Thank you so much for supporting me and TimeOut
