Tuakau, Auckland
Mum and son teaming up to do this challenge
I'm not a fit mum I know growing up life wasn't easy for me. It was full of obstacles and challenges. When I saw this challenge it sparked my heart to give it a go to show teens out there who maybe going through hard times.
Participating in this challenge I'm also showing my own son that you go through hard stuff in life bit you can also get through life by showing up believe in yourself and by never giving up to overcome your mountain in front of you. I'm hoping this will show others that what is inside you is way bigger than any thing you face or may come up against it's always better having the right support around you to pull you through those tough times.
We will be representing the Graeme Dingle
Foundation Waikato climbing
the Hakarimata Kauri Loop Track (3km) as many times as we can in 4 hours. Raising funds for this foundation to help other teens overcome their obstacles.
