Kate is crossing for cancer

This isn't just a hike.

It isn't just a fundraiser.

Adjust Your Altitude is a life-changing endurance challenge that represents the mountain each young New Zealander faces when they are diagnosed with cancer.

We all know people who have been affected by cancer, young and old. The closest person lost to my family was my beautiful, energetic and loving step- mother, Val. We all miss her to this day. I am doing the Tongariro Crossing, a 19.4km hike in memory of her, and in honor of my Dad.

Whole Lotta Life are here to support people in my age group who have a 'whole lotta living' to do and who've also got to deal with cancer. I am proud to take part in the Adjust your Altitude Challenge and be #CrossingforCancer this November so they can help even more people.

I am even dragging my husband, Sean along!!

Any donations are appreciated to help me smash my fundraising goal of $1121 - the starting altitude of the Tongariro Crossing.
