Help me make it meaningful

Mental illness doesn’t discriminate – it affects 1 in 5 Australians every year with symptoms like depression and anxiety. The impact can be devastating, not only for those living with it, but for those around them.

That’s why I’m getting active and raising funds for the Black Dog Institute - to support crucial mental health research and support services that help Australians impacted by mental illness.

Help me create a meaningful moment for mental health as I work up a sweat, all for a great cause!

Please donate now. Thank you.

Running for More Than Just Distance 💙

Wednesday 28th Jan

Over the next 29 days, I’m taking on a challenge that’s both physical and deeply personal — running 200 kilometres for mental health.


This isn’t about speed or records. It’s about showing up every day, even on the hard ones. It’s about moving my body for the days when my mind feels heavy, and for the people who silently fight battles we can’t always see.


Mental health touches all of us — whether it’s ourselves, our family, our friends, or someone we love. Through this challenge, I want to help start conversations, break the stigma, and remind others that they’re never alone.


Some days will be tough. There will be sore legs and moments where quitting feels easier. But every kilometre I run is for someone who needs hope, support, or a reminder that better days are possible.


If you’re able to support this journey — by donating, sharing, or sending encouragement — it truly means the world. Every contribution helps create real change for mental health.


Thank you for being part of this with me.

Here’s to 200km, 29 days, and running for something that truly matters. 


💙 Ella
