About


Support our team and empower local youth!

This year, my team and I are taking on the Brisbane Kokoda Challenge — a 30km hike through some seriously tough terrain — as a way to honour the family and friends we’ve lost over the years, especially in the last few.

We’re doing this together as team Mostly Functional — which feels appropriately honest for a pair attempting 30km on tired legs and questionable knees.

While this challenge will test us physically, it’s also something deeply personal for both of us. Every step is for the people we miss, the memories we carry, and the reminder to keep showing up for the people around us.

At the same time, we’re proud to be fundraising for the Kokoda Youth Foundation, whose programs help young Australians develop resilience, courage, endurance, mateship and sacrifice through life-changing experiences and mentoring.

If you’re able to support us with a donation — big or small — we’d both genuinely appreciate it.

Thank you to my Sponsors
