20k and our biggest team yet!
Another Run Melbourne done and dusted - but boy did we give it our all!Thank you to everyone who took part, helped organise, donated, and supported another Run Melbourne campaign! We've been taking part since 2008 and we achieved our goal of the biggest team yet, with over 40 runners and walkers, and 141 donors raising funds for Learning for Life Autism Centre.
We set the goal of raising $20K in celebration of our 20th year in operation and we did it! We raised $21K, with over $14K through the Run Melbourne portal (putting us in the top 14 of funds raised for the event) and an additional $7K raised through the generous support of 5point Foundation and Bendigo Bank Community Inner East. Well done everyone!
There were some wonderful highlights of the day and many more stories to share as we reflect on the event. Of particular note:
- Our L4Life ambassador, Hugo, came 29th in the male category of the 5.5km - fantastic effort Hugo.
- L4Life staff member, Erin Delaney, ran her first half marathon and exceeded her goal time.
- Our volunteers from St Leonards - Jerry, Kevin and Antonio - were a wonderful support on the home stretch. They also managed to get some great pics (see below).
- A shout out to our regular Run Melbourne participants: the Crane family, Vincent Chen and the Das family.
