I’m taking on Cancer Council's The March Charge, a month-long fitness challenge to raise funds for cancer research, prevention programs, and support services. 

My goal is to run 50kms (31 miles) – and while that may not sound like much  to some, (however a marathon is 26 miles/42 km) it’s a huge challenge for me since I’ve never been much of a runner (I trip over my own feet after two steps!). But I’m determined to push myself. 

Five years ago, my family lost my Papa James to cancer, and it’s a cause close to my heart. I truly believe in the importance of continued funding for research, treatment, and support services.

That’s why I’m doing this – to help make a real difference.
