Running for Bailey

I will be running my first marathon in memory of my brother Bailey, raising money for cancer research with Cancer Research Trust New Zealand

Wanaka, Otago

This one is for Bailey🤍

Almost 10 years ago, my family lost my brother Bailey to a very rare and aggressive cancer called NUT midline carcinoma.

Losing Bailey changed our lives forever, and while so much time has passed, his loss is something we still carry with us every day.

In November this year, I’m taking on something I never thought I would - my first ever marathon.

I’ll be running the 2026 Queenstown Marathon in Bailey’s memory, while raising money for Cancer Research Trust New Zealand.

Cancer has affected so many families, including mine, and I want to use something that I love to help contribute towards research that could make a difference for others in the future.

Over the next 10 weeks, I’ll be documenting my marathon training, the good, the bad, and everything in between on Instagram and TikTok.

My goal is to raise $5,000 for cancer research, and every donation, no matter how big or small, will help me get there.

If you’re able to donate, share the page, or simply follow along with my journey, I’d be incredibly grateful.

I’m running for Bailey, and for everyone whose lives have been changed by cancer🤍
