Why I'm committed to help protect children in Australia

I’m Steve and I’ve always been a runner, but up until I was about 30 I never thought about running more than 10km. That was until my love for Obstacle Course Racing sparked an interest in endurance running. This led to my hunt for a local half marathon, which was done in July 2019 at a little event called the Canberra Bravehearts 777. From that cold and wet morning a new thirst for longer and harder events started and I’ve since run multiple 50 & 100km events and my first 100 miler event. I’ve been lucky to run around the world, including races in Rotorua, NZ, Petra in Jordan and around the Giza Pyramids in Egypt – all whilst wearing my stylish running jean shorts/jorts.

 

I got into the Bravehearts 777 after working in law enforcement for about 14 years. Protecting the community and in particular the most vulnerable parts of the community has always been a passion of mine. Seeing first-hand the positive impact that Bravehearts has had to protect children from sexual abuse and educate the community about resources available is a driving force in why I’m committed to running 7 Marathons in 7 Days across Australia.

 

Hearing that 1 in 4 Australians are affected by child sexual abuse is a shocking statistic that I am compelled to change and I am seeking your help and assistance to help raise money for Bravehearts so they can continue to empower and protect Australian children.

 

Please help through donations, sharing this around, coming along to the state based events and following me as I bring my bright colours and jorts around the country to make all children feel safe in Australia.
