I'm fundraising for remote and rural Queenslanders doing it tough
Doing it tough in the bush means doing it extra tough, because people in remote, rural and regional Queensland don’t have the same access to professional mental health services and support. For many, the Flying Doctor is their only option.
That’s why I’m challenging myself to walk 3km a day in March. I hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Please support me!
Together we can keep the Flying Doctor flying, delivering 3 major mental health programs (Drought Wellbeing, Remote Wellbeing and Wellbeing Out West) and over 12,100 mental health consultations a year to regional, rural and remote Queensland.
Please donate to my challenge today!

Day 6 - Denmark Hill and Limestone Park
Monday 9th Mar Well it's clear today we were feeling ambitious to say the least.Erica wanted to try a walking trail in the centre of Ipswich called Denmark Hill. The tracks were labeled as moderate so we thought it wouldn't be too bad. Omg we were wrong. For beginners Denmark Hill is not recommended. We did see a beautiful sunset.
We did roughly over 1.5km at Denmark Hill which took over 35mins before we moved on to Limestone Park where it was safer and there was more light.
Overall completed 3.06km in 56:14
Burned 401 Calories and did 4,086 steps.
Total for day
4,936 steps and 3.35km
