I’m Clocking K’s for R U OK?
This July, I’m joining K’s for R U OK? to stay connected, develop healthy habits and help to create a world where we're connected and protected from suicide. Almost everyone you know, including myself has been affected by mental health at one point of another. So dust off those wallets and watch me try my best to get in better shape while raising funds for this amazing organisation!
Each week I'll be consistent in my clocking as I walk (run, wheel or ride) to help start more life-changing conversations.
By donating to my page you are helping R U OK? provide free, essential resources to schools, workplaces, families, and communities across Australia. Giving them the tools and confidence to spot the signs and to start a conversation that could change the life of someone who's struggling. And you'll be putting a big smile on my face.
Thank you so much.
By inspiring people to take the time to ask “Are you OK?” and listen, we can help people struggling with life to feel connected long before they even think about suicide.

22nd
Monday 22nd Jul Today I reached 75km, which is huge!!! If you asked me a couple of months ago if I could walk 75km in 3 weeks, I would have told you you’re dreaming! My skin is doing amazing, I’m feeling fitter, healthier and more positive. Plus it’s Monday! So I’m super excited to smash out the last 45km and get these K’s done! Don’t forget to check in on your mates and make sure they are doing OK! Share

Rain delay on day 7
Sunday 7th Jul Well today didn’t quite go to plan, had a busy day with family lunches and having to do some food shopping. Then by the time we got home it had started to rain and was absolutely freezing outside! So I conceded defeat and headed for the treadmill, got 3km done before my right ankle decided it had had enough. I’m still super happy getting to 26km in my very first week and I’m still feeling great! Other than a little sore 😅 Share
Saturday
Saturday 6th Jul Woke up this morning with a runny nose and sore throat, one of the biggest downsides to working with children! So I spent most of the morning in bed with a honey lemon tea and some codral. Woke up about 3pm and felt tinned better, so decided to do a lap of our suburb to see how that felt, Chris came with and we attempted to take Middy but she didn’t even make it down the street, so he took her home and eventually caught up to me. Was pretty chilly and I opted for some thicker socks this time, which definitely helped my feet! Hopefully don’t end up too sore as I’m gonna attempted another big walk tomorrow! Share
Day 5
Friday 5th Jul Well it’s 5 days in and my feet and legs are definitely feeling it. I generally do between 6000-7000 steps already a day at work, however all of my K’s for R U OK are additional and I’m really not used to it. The past couple of days I’ve lacked a lot of motivation, however seeing how many donations I’ve already received has been my driving force! I’m also incredibly lucky that husband is so supportive and has been encouraging me to do even just a little bit every day. I’m looking forward to trying another big walk over the weekend, and then probably get the massage gun out for my calves 😂 Share

Tuesday 2nd Jul
Numero Uno
Monday 1st Jul Came home from work. Did not feel like it. AT ALL. So I slid my chef shoes off and slid on my crocs and jumped on the treadmill. I didn’t realise how dusty it was until I jumped on so I had to run to grab a micro fiber to dust it off with (I didn’t count the run to the linen cupboard in my steps don’t worry). Did a whole kilometre before realising we had to step things up and put the crocs into sports mode, once that was done the next 2 kilometres were easy peasy. Felt pretty good by the end of it and if it wasn’t for dinner with the paps, I would have done a little more.Thank you to my Sponsors
